Allocate 10% in gold during stock market uncertainty

In the last few years, gold has really done very well, and therefore, has attracted a lot of attention. We personally believe that gold is a part of an asset allocation strategy. In the normal course of time, when there is no uncertainty in the equity market, we recommend 5-7% allocation of your assets in gold.
In times of uncertainty, then you can increase your allocation to maybe 10%, but not more than that. It has done very well, but that doesn’t mean that the sharp rise will continue.
