Gold’s record-breaking rally is reshaping how investors think about diversification

Gold has surged over 50% this year, its strongest performance since 1979, as inflation concerns and market volatility drive demand for safe-haven assets. Institutional investors are now reconsidering the traditional 60/40 portfolio split, with some analysts proposing a 60/20/20 model — giving gold an equal place alongside bonds.
