Welcome back to Market Mondays! In this insightful clip, Rashad Bilal, Troy Millings, and financial analyst Ian Dunlap sit down to break down gold’s explosive performance—nearly at an all-time high and even outpacing the NASDAQ year to date! If you’ve been following the markets or are worried about economic uncertainty, this discussion is for you. Ian gives his perspective on gold as the ultimate hedge in your portfolio, especially in times of government volatility or looming shutdowns. The guys dissect the reasons why gold and other “safe haven” assets like Bitcoin continue to shine under these market conditions, pointing to big voices like Mike Novogratz who have championed gold amidst uncertainty. They talk about the importance of balancing “risk-on” assets (think: AI stocks, crypto, tech) versus solid hedges like gold. Troy plays devil’s advocate and prompts a conversation about what, if anything, could cause gold to retrace or pull back. Ian’s response? Unless we see major global money printing and near-zero interest rates like in 2008 or during COVID, gold’s run looks far from over. On top of that, Rashad gives some on-the-ground perspective from Guinea, a major hub for gold exports, revealing the scale of gold flowing out to places like Dubai every week. They go deep on gold’s historical trends, why central banks and big funds still stockpile it, and why being a disciplined investor is more important than ever. Whether you’re new to investing or a seasoned pro, you’ll get key takeaways on building a balanced portfolio and following the “golden rule”: follow the money and don’t ignore what’s right in front of you! *Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share!
