05/02/2015 - Financial Repression in Australia Will Likely Lead to Investments in Precious Metals

ABC Bullion Chief Economist Jordan Eliseo essay on the Australian Superannuation industry, & investment in gold & precious metals .. he sees increasing numbers of Australians as choosing to self-direct their retirement portfolios in the direction of physical gold & silver “as a natural choice in a low to negative real rate environment, and as the ultimate portfolio protection in an era of financial repression” .. also he expects at some point for institutional players to eventually adopt a strategic allocation to precious metals .. “Record low bond yields, stretched valuations in certain sectors of the equity market, and the prospect of further interest rate cuts will force these funds in this direction. One need not be a raging gold bull to recognise that a more robust and prudent asset allocation strategy for the coming years simply can’t continue to completely overlook the asset at the bottom of Exeter’s Pyramid.”
