Key Quote:

“Gold actually has an enormously powerful psychological benefit to investors. We recently just did a survey last week in the UK, and we asked people who own who have bought gold or who plan to buy gold and how they feel about inflation. They are significantly calmer about it whereas people who don't own gold or have never owned gold or don't plan to are much more nervous about the market and what inflation is going to do to their household balance sheets.” - Stephen Flood
