The speaker's firm maintains an "overweight" position in gold in its portfolios as a hedge against geopolitical risk and a structurally less inflation-sensitive Fed. Geopolitical priorities are dominating macroeconomic discipline, leading to a view that the Fed will be slower to hike even amid supply-shock inflation, which is bullish for non-yielding hedges like gold. Gold is a preferred portfolio hedge in an environment of binary geopolitical risk and shifting central bank reactions. A swift and sustained de-escalation in the Middle East, coupled with a return to hawkish Fed prioritization of inflation.

A significant escalation or prolonging of the Middle East conflict that triggers a broad risk-off event impacting all equities.
