Iโ€™ve been tracking it since 2016 (~30k levels) recently breached 50k! Have not been able to make a buying decision yet (Too overvalued or still a good time?). Thoughts? A very interesting articles which definitely tells me one thing that Sovereign Gold Bonds are better amongst securities that invest in Gold as an underlying. > **[The golden era comes back](https://www.valueresearchonline.com/stories/48164/the-golden-era-comes-back)** > > As equity markets have tanked, gold has rallied.

It has always been on the rise as you said @sneh.baxi ![Screenshot 2020-07-02 15.02.51](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/jupiter/original/1X/2c5228f4d91701531689323d07120f3fc624a699.png) Gold is used by Dalio to everyone for hedging right? So maybe 3-8% portfolio should be gold. I used to accumulate via Gold Savings Plan by Paytm, but now recently shifted to Gold ETFs as they are much more efficient. ---

I think gold is the safest bet out there , as it has some real value. Its easy to liquidate. It gives good returns. Did i say its a safe bet ? If you buy in physical form then you can also make badass jewellery out of it. You cant wear your FDs around your neck. ๐Ÿ™‚ Also i consider investments like gold , real-estate to be a long term game. And in long term they always give good returns. ---

Jewellery, I just imagined how it looks against a money garland (vivid imaginations ๐Ÿ˜› ) But are you or anyone here buying Sovereign Gold Bonds in this tranche, applications close this friday right? ---

My stock manager says Gold is like insurance, itโ€™s not an investment as we Indians like to keep it with us rather than trading it away ---
