Q: Stepping back and ignoring what is currently happening with the price of gold, what percentage of a portfolio do you think an average investor should dedicate to gold?
Thanks as always.

5i Research Answer:

We think something in the range of 5% to 10% makes sense, with 10% maybe being a bit on the high side. This range is enough to add a bit of diversification and still large enough that if/when gold works, it will contribtue to returns as well.
