Most investors would likely be surprised to hear it… But gold actually outperformed stocks – rising 27% – last year.
Gold stocks had a similarly impressive run, before the recent volatility. They were up more than 40% on the year by late October. And despite the stock market pullback, they still ended the year up 11%.
Investors seemed to have missed this entirely. And the few who have been paying attention aren’t buying… They’re selling.
This negative sentiment is years in the making. But it won’t last forever. And when it reverses, we could see a gold-stock rally that will really grab the headlines.
