Why Precious Metals Beat Inflation

Gold's finite supply and central bank demand (900+ tons bought in 2025) make it a stable store of value, rising 125% over four years against monetary expansion. Silver adds industrial upside from solar and EV growth (15-20% annual demand), offering higher volatility for growth while hedging costs. Unlike stocks vulnerable to rate hikes, metals thrive in fiscal dominance scenarios driven by tariffs and deficits.​
