Gold is the ultimate hedge against global chaos. Or at least, that’s what it has been historically. But during this Middle East crisis, it has been anything BUT rock-solid. The question is…why?
Stocks rallied yesterday after a door to some kind of Middle East deal was opened. But the gains faded modestly by the close. A wave of attacks and counterattacks by Israel and Iran overnight has markets back in a skeptical mood, with equities and Treasuries lower and oil rising about 4%. Iran struck other targets in the Persian Gulf, too, leading to speculation countries like Saudi Arabia or the United Arab Emirates could even join the fight.
Stocks are soaring, crude oil is tanking, and bonds are rallying off their lows. Gold and silver are bouncing after an early selloff, while the dollar is down modestly.
Bonds are supposed to provide your portfolio with protection and balance. Insurance against stock market losses, if you will. But Treasuries are getting trashed now.
