If you've read my articles recently you know that I've gone into precious metals. I'm not too positive on the world economy. This doesn't mean the world economy will do poorly, but it does mean there is a lot of uncertainty (trade war, high corporate debt, high federal debt, possible negative interest rates, etc).
Precious metals are looking like a great alternative especially with bond yields being low or even negative. Please look at my previous article for more information.
Ray Dalio (founder of Bridgewater Capital) also has an article addressing this point.
