The reason gold dropped during the market crash was due to allot of recless investors needing to sell off their gold to meet margin calls on leveraged investments. This quickly turned around because of its increasing demand.

Well, you proved that market crash can and will cause gold prices to drop due to this type of sell-off. And one should be aware of it instead of rationalizing that "if not X and Y, the price wouldn't have dropped". Is gold a safer investment during this type of event-driven crash? Probably.

I'd be curious to see how people that use these "safe havens" really end up compared to everyone else that just rides out the storm. If you perpetually keep a large percentage of your asset allocation in them then you're losing out over time. And if you plan to move to gold (etc) BEFORE the inevitable next downturn then you're basically trying to time the market, which is notoriously difficult. Any dip you avoid will be at the cost of any growth you miss before it happens. I guess if you feel confident in the timing of a crash it makes sense but you could also use shorts as a hedge in this case as well. Would be cool to see an analysis of different strategies and in which scenarios each performs better.

Unless you physically hold the gold, gold isn't a hedge against a societal collapse like many of the "prepper" types think it is. I.e. how are you going to call the bank and "get" your gold? How can you sell your gold stocks? What would you receive when you did sell? Worthless post-apocalypse paper dollars? The market always recovers, and when it doesn't, it won't much matter unless you have physical assets. In this way, "save havens" are important for those near retirement who are risk-intolerant. They need to lose at little value as possible because they don't have "time" in the market to recoup the losses, such as after 2008. If you were retiring in 2008 and saw your life savings plummet 30%, you might be persuaded against retiring, and then a trickle-down job shortage affects young people and career seekers because fewer new jobs opened than projected. A savvy investor with great timing might sell stocks before the crash, buy gold before the run, sell gold after the run, then buy stocks before the recovery. You could probably double your money in a matter of months, but you would have to have incredible luck and timing.

In my opinion the "flight to quality" effect when investors flock to, safe securities, like Treasuries, in times of market turmoil, reflects a greater concern for return of capital rather than return on capital. Equities will become even more volatile Think of what is going to happen in late June or early July of 2020 when Americans remove the moratorium on evictions and mortgage payments......and people are evicted or foreclosed on.....real estate revenues and hence investments will tumble and so will the economy......if the government does not support workers by furloughing wages and if Fed removes the "FED Put" , then the shit is going to hit the fan.....if the American economy tanks, so will the Canadian and other country's economies......happy times ahead! ...beware!😀 On the other hand, the USA economy could be saved if the government embarks on a massive infrastructure spending (why not borrow when the coat of capital is near zero?) and it uses the unemployed to build it....In addition to supporting small businesses and their workers..

In this video he's talking about past correlation over a very small time frame. It's just analyzing how the assets were affected by the events that occurred during that time. Even a perfect 1.0 past correlation does not guarantee that two assets will have the same performance in the future, and zero past correlation does not guarantee that two assets won't both drop in value at the same time. There is no reliable way to estimate future correlation (especially since prices are heavily based on investor confidence, so they can be affected by events that have nothing to do with the asset), although we can theorize about how particular events would influence different assets.

5:13 there's a nuance here I think is important: the fact that the US treasury bills are a common standard for government bonds is not because US is seen as the "strongest economy in the world", but because a) the US is the /largest/ economy in the world and by extension b) USD is the de facto world currency; therefore the treasury bills form the largest and most liquid asset market in the world, and it is that liquidity that gives them their value. A more substantial and rather interesting omission is the obvious one: USD itself! Students of monetary economics and international finance know that USD appreciating during crises is a well-observed pattern no different in the current crisis (due to many factors). In the bottom of the crisis even treasury bills were losing value because investors were rallying away to USD. In real-world terms, it is seen as the most safe and secure asset, beyond niches such as gold or BTC.

People think commodities are scarce. They are not. They are abundant but often uneconomic to extract. That includes metals and fuels. When prices rise, there is incentive to produce from more expensive extraction points, but when prices are low, you cannot afford to keep the mine or well working. So prices are going to live in a range determined by demand. Most securities pay a dividend, but commodities do not, which means you may be MORE exposed to inflation risk.

@@elmateo77 when there's a dash on the x or y in the formula, that's the mean. So x minus the mean of x is comparing the value to the average of all values, just like I said. It's actually explained below the formula in the second link you posted.

Gold gained value between mid February (when the market started to fall due to the production collapse in China) and mid April. The S&P500 is still sitting on a huge loss. I’m no gold bug, but claiming it didn’t excel as a hedge in this case is pants-on-head insanity. It performed excellently.

I really don't think bitcoin should be seen as an investment. It was 'meant' to be a digital currency, beneath which is just a ledger (blockchain). It's like saying - "I'll invest in euro by buying 10 euros". Anyone else feel the same?

5:20 but doesn’t this mean it still protected it? just less than other places would and not by enough to stay break black. liquid cash would have been negative by the whole amount of inflation while the bonds are losing a lesser amount?

What about silver? Silver has more utility than gold in material things and its more rare than gold. It hit a low recently but longterm outlook looks as demand will rise and supply is limited.

Gold going down 2% is incredible though. It seems like the proper way to hold gold in an investment portfolio is to actively use it once stocks slide. Anyone who converted their Gold over to stocks in March/April would have made a lot of money

Interesting fact-check, it'd be great to re-run the numbers one year from now to see how these assets behaved. Because as pointed out with gold, it climbed faster than stocks once the sudden drop was past.
