BlackRock: Suggests adding gold and Bitcoin as a complement to bond investments

ChainCatcher news, BlackRock stated in a report that government bonds are no longer a reliable buffer against sell-offs in risk assets like stocks, and investors should consider using gold and Bitcoin as a supplement to bond investments. Economies are undergoing a transformation that may continue to change long-term economic trends.

In the context of rising inflation, bonds may not be able to withstand stock market sell-offs. Bonds no longer reliably diversify the risk of a portfolio across a wide range of potential outcomes and scenarios. This requires us to rethink diversification. Therefore, investors should consider new diversification tools such as gold and Bitcoin, even though they will not replace bonds. (Jin Shi)
