In this episode of Palisades Gold Radio, Tom Bodrovics welcomes back Kevin Wadsworth and Patrick Karim for a discussion on the probably capital rotation event coming soon to commodities generally and the stock market. They explore evidence suggesting gold’s outperformance over key indicators like US money supply, the dollar index, and major indices such as S&P 500, Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and Russell.

Kevin and Patrick highlight that significant shifts occur when sectors underperform gold for extended periods (10-15 years), often leading to substantial drops before recovery. They caution Bitcoin holders about potential underperformance during this rotation, a sector historically correlated with tech stocks.

The conversation delves into the historical performance of SPX and NASDAQ versus gold, noting tech stocks and Bitcoin’s significant drawdowns but eventual recoveries. Yet, these assets often lag behind gold for prolonged periods, resulting in real losses for investors holding them.

The charting duo emphasize the importance of comparing any investment assets to the benchmark of gold, to gauge market shifts. They advocate investing in gold during market confusion and stress understanding that gold is currently in a bull era.

Additionally, they discuss the importance of risk management, patience, waiting for clear trends before entering markets, and avoiding concentration in single investments or chasing bottoms and tops of markets.

Ultimately, Kevin and Patrick stress patience, a long-term perspective, and applying ‘the gold test’ before any investment decision.
