Is Gold Really a Good Hedge?

Posted by: | Comments (0)

Bloomberg’s Macro Man columnist set out to test whether gold really offers protection against market turmoil. What he found was a bit of a surprise.

Gold bugs point to a myriad of reasons to own their favorite metal, from fiat currency debasement to gold’s history as a monetary unit.
