Why a Full Gold Standard Is Impractical Today

Gold’s on a tear — and host Merryn Somerset Webb asks Dominic Frisby, investor and author of the investment newsletter The Flying Frisby and a new book The Secret History of Gold why.

Practical takeaways include how physical sovereigns, miners, and ETFs can fit into a portfolio today.
