How Gold Could Replace Bonds As A Portfolio Diversifier

TedTed
in The Bullpen
FYI: Instead of trying to navigate the freewheeling price of gold over various market cycles, financial advisers might be better served by focusing on the precious metal's lack of correlation with other investments.

That's the basic premise of a research report showing that a 5% allocation to gold improves the risk-adjusted performance of a standard portfolio of 60% stocks and 40% bonds.

Ted
