If there’s one asset class that’s had a really rough time since the middle of 2011, it’s been gold. At the deepest part of the decline, gold hit a hard bottom at the end of 2015, putting it down nearly 45% from the top to the bottom. 

Since the start of 2016, though the prices increased by about 17%. Many gold bugs are suggesting a big movement might be right around the corner. 

On today’s show, we have a leading expert in gold, how the precious metal performs during credit cycles and how investors should think about its position size in their portfolio. Without further delay, here’s our conversation with the thoughtful David McAlvany.
