Is it time to go back to gold?

By Murray Hunter - posted Thursday, 3 October 2024

Some concluding remarks on gold as an investment

Gold should be seen as a personal security. A current asset that can be quickly converted into cash, if need be. Consequently, a percentage of your annual income should be available in a convertible asset, in case of an emergency.

Gold is also a store of value and will certainly appreciate.
