Dan Popescu explains why we should hold at least 10% of our money in gold. It should not, he says, be considered as an investment, rather as a hedge, or a backup, in case it is needed in times of market stress. IGTV’s Jeremy Naylor highlights the commonly misunderstood use of gold in a portfolio and suggests what Popescu says is an important lesson for us all, especially in the current environment.

We provide fast and flexible access to over 16,000 financial markets – including indices, shares, forex and commodities – through our award-winning range of platforms and apps.
Established in 1974 as the world’s first financial spread betting firm, we’re now the world’s No.1 provider of CFDs and spread betting* and a global leader in forex. We also offer an execution-only share dealing service in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria and the Netherlands. Our range of affordable, fully managed investment portfolios rounds out our comprehensive offering to investors and active traders.
Through our low fees and smart price-sourcing technology, we help traders keep their costs down.
Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 76% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider†. You should consider whether you understand how spread bets and CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Professional clients can lose more than they deposit.
* Based on revenue excluding FX (published financial statements, February 2018).
