Hard Assets Alliance: The Role Of Gold (And Silver)

An update on the case for holding precious metals

Longtime PeakProsperity.com readers know that the Hard Assets Alliance is this website’s officially-endorsed gold & silver bullion dealer (the list of reasons why can be read here).

Given the painful slog over recent years for precious metals investors, we thought it was high time to bring them back on the program to offer an update on the fundamental reasons for continuing to own bullion.

This week, Chris sits down with HAA executive Ed D’Agostino to discuss the role of gold (and silver) in an investment portfolio during the age of bitcoin and endless central bank liquidity:

As for what’s next for prices, in terms of supply, I think that the sector, in many ways, has a self-correcting aspect to it. If producers can’t produce and make any profit — and that’s really where they’re at now in the silver mining sector — eventually that situation will correct. Mines will shut down, and the price will go up. We’re seeing something similar to that in oil right now.

But then when you introduce the short position on the COMEX, things become more nefarious. In the US, the government has, in my opinion, beaten gold out of the collective consciousness of the American citizenship. So because of that, Americans tend to be very under-invested or under-exposed to gold.

My general sense is I think we’ll kind of keep grinding sideways as we’ve been for a while until a trigger event happens — and then you’ll see the real value of holding gold in your portfolio. During a black swan event, gold tends to hold up quite well whereas other more conventional investments — like equites which have all the headlines these days — will struggle.
