Gold Rush Blindness: Your Diversification Is Broken
Event Summary
Record-breaking inflows into multi-asset funds in 2025, primarily chasing recent gains in gold and silver, have exposed a risk of concentrated investment masquerading as broad diversification among Indian retail investors. This trend is occurring against a backdrop of significant central bank gold buying and shifting reserve allocations away from the US dollar.
Precious Metal Proponents
"View gold and silver as stable hedges during global uncertainty, likely to outperform equities in 2026 due to persistent risks."
Skeptics of the Rally
"Argue the gold rally is driven by speculative liquidity, not fundamentals, and has lost its traditional hedging property."
