Gold Note No. 11

By Jim RickardsPosted April 30, 2021

No one plays the gold market better than the Central Bank of Russia. The allocation within its reserve position shows a near-perfectly hedged portfolio and its gold reserves gives a win to Russia whether the dollar devalues or not. Buying gold now at an attractive entry point will give you the same type of hedge that Russia enjoys now.

The Central Bank of Russia has almost quadrupled Russia's gold reserves over the past twelve years. Turkey and China are consistently large gold buyers as well. This shows that gold is considered an important form of money by the most powerful nations in the world. If gold is good enough for the U.S., Russia, China and Japan, it's good enough for your portfolio also. With favorable prices, the time to build your target allocation is now.

Gold Note No. 37

By Jim RickardsPosted June 15, 2022

When other forms of money have high real yields, gold struggles except to the extent it is held as a precautionary or safe haven asset. But when other forms of money have deeply negative real yields (as is the case today), gold is more attractive to investors. And gold can perform even better when the safe-haven aspect is contemporaneous with a high-inflation period that results in negative real yields. As we wait for the Fed decision today on rate hikes, Jim discusses a scenario in his latest gold note where gold prices can shine in this volatile environment.

Gold Note No. 25

By Jim RickardsPosted December 8, 2021

Many investors regard gold as a safe haven investment in an inflationary environment. But gold has always been a strategic asset as well. Fifty years of dollar hegemony have caused policy makers in the West to ignore the importance of gold in geopolitics. Jim details how Russia is the latest example of using gold as a weapon of war and why prices will surge as this reality dawns on western strategists and investors.
