Two years ago, one of America\u2019s biggest hedge funds bailed on gold\u2026<\/p>\n

Less than 1% of Bridgewater Associates\u2019 fund was invested in the metal. And by August 2023, that investment fell to zero. Bridgewater sold all of its gold shares, a transaction worth about $163 million.<\/p>\n

The timing couldn\u2019t have been worse.<\/p>\n

Since Bridgewater announced its gold sale, the metal has surged 77% \u2013 more than doubling the return of the S&P 500 Index. That would have turned Bridgewater\u2019s initial investment into about $289 million in less than two years.<\/p>\n

Bridgewater misjudged the gold market. But as I\u2019ll discuss in a second, so did most of the Western world\u2026<\/p>\n

Today, that\u2019s changing. After missing the boat for years, North American and European investors are waking up to the opportunity in gold. And that could push prices higher than anyone expects\u2026<\/p>\n

This Gold Bull Market Might Just Be Starting<\/strong>
I\u2019ve written recently about two major sources of gold demand in recent years\u2026<\/p>\n

One is Chinese investors, who are spilling into all sorts of metals (including gold, but most recently, platinum).<\/p>\n

The other is central bankers, who are stacking gold in their vaults to hedge against political uncertainty and a falling U.S. dollar.<\/p>\n

These buyers are moving the needle. Gold prices hit an all-time high above $3,434 on April 21. And the rally is showing little sign of slowing down\u2026<\/p>\n

But gold\u2019s recent bull run isn\u2019t the surprising part. It\u2019s that Western investors have stubbornly avoided the rally.<\/em><\/p>\n

One way we can see this is through shares outstanding of SPDR Gold Shares (GLD)<\/strong>. This fund holds physical gold in a vault. It allows investors to get exposure to gold without worrying about storing it themselves.<\/p>\n

Importantly, GLD is an open-ended fund. That means it can create or liquidate shares based on investor demand\u2026<\/p>\n

When investor interest in gold picks up, GLD creates more shares. And it can withdraw shares when investor interest lags.<\/p>\n

The fund\u2019s share count has plunged since 2020. But SPDR Gold Shares has rallied in price despite investor apathy. Take a look\u2026<\/p>\n

Even the gold rally hasn\u2019t been enough to get Western investors to buy GLD.<\/p>\n

We can see this specifically through purchase data from the World Gold Council. According to this metric, investors in North America and Europe have been net sellers of gold since 2022. Take a look\u2026<\/p>\n

Westerners didn\u2019t just ignore gold during the recent rally. They sold as the metal trended higher.<\/em> And the bears have only just admitted defeat and started buying.<\/p>\n

In other words, Western investors are finally \u201cgetting the memo\u201d on gold\u2019s ongoing bull run. And now, the metal has yet another new source of demand.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve missed the gold rally so far, you\u2019re not the only one. But with Western investors finally joining the party, it\u2019s a great time to go long.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t make the same costly mistake as Bridgewater did in 2023\u2026 Add gold to your portfolio today.<\/p>\n

Good investing,<\/p>\n
