Well, whynowisbecausewelivein a worldwhereafterCOVID, theriskofstagflationaryshocksthatleadtohigherinflationandlowereconomicgrowtharebecomingmoresevere.
Nothighinflation, nothyperinflation, buteven a riseininflationfrom 2% to 5%, 6% has a massivedamagingeffectforthetraditionallong-durationfixedincomeasset.
It's notquite a whitelabel, butforthoselisteningwhomaybearen't familiarwiththeconcept, basicallyGoldmanSachshelpedyoudothebackofficestuff, as I believeit, orunderstandit, togetthisETFtothemasses.
Soin 2018, whenwecameoffthebackendofworkingthroughthealternativeTreasuryinstrumentideathroughtheTrumpadministrationandthenationalsecuritythinktankwewereworkingthrough, theGoldmanSachsteamtookituponthemselvestohelpusdevisethisprogramas a moreresilient U.S.

No, it's a substituteforthebondportion, becauseas I pointedout, thetraditionaldefensiveassetislong-termtreasury, doesn't workin a worldinwhichinflationisgoingtobegraduallyhigher, bondisgoingtobehigher, pricesaregoingtobelowerforthosebondsat a timewheretherecouldbecorrectioninequitymarkets.
Andtherefore, youhavetofind a hedgeagainst a worldinwhichbondyieldsonthelongsidemaybemuchhigherthan 4% andmaygotowards 6%, 7%, even 8% in a scenariowhereinflationgoesfrom 2% through 3%, 4%, 5%.
But, I mean, theargumentcanbemadethatyoutake a lookatgoldandit's notexactly a reliablehedgeofinflation.
しかし、つまり、金を見てみると、インフレヘッジとして信頼できるものではないことがわかる。
I mean, itgoesbackandforthoverthepastfouryears.
つまり、この4年間は一進一退だった。
I knowwe'reclosetorecordhighsrightnow.
今、記録的な高さに近づいているのは知っている。

しかし、安定した価値の貯蔵となると、金にそれがあると言えるだろうか?
Well, goldhasthebenefitthathas a varietyofhedgingcharacteristics.
さて、金にはさまざまなヘッジ特性があるという利点がある。
Usually, wheninflationishigher, itdoeswell.
通常、インフレ率が高くなると、景気は良くなる。
Whenthereis a riskofdebasementofsharecurrency, itdoeswell.
株安のリスクがあるときは、うまくいく。
In a worldinwhichcentralbanksaremovingawayfromthedollarassetbecauseofthedollarization, becausewe'veweaponizedthedollarfornationalsecurityandforeignpolicyreasons, goldgoeshigher.
