Gold, Not Dollar, Is the Best Trump Trade, Survey Shows

By Carter Johnson and Yvonne Yue Li – Bloomberg

Gold is the best portfolio hedge in the event Donald Trump retakes the White House, according to the latest Bloomberg Markets Live Pulse survey.

Proponents of the precious metal as a haven play in case of Trump’s reelection outnumbered those picking the US dollar two-to-one among the 480 respondents. Just over 60% of those surveyed see the greenback ultimately weakening in the event the Republican candidate secures another presidential term.
