About this listen

In this episode of The Hawaii Retirement Show, Jason steps back from the headlines to make sense of gold, what it is, why people care about it, and how it has actually behaved across different economic environments. Using history as the guide, he explains how gold has performed during inflationary periods and financial crises, and why it can underperform for long stretches when confidence in markets is strong.

Jason closes by framing gold realistically within a portfolio, emphasizing that it is best understood as insurance or a diversifier, not a growth asset. He explains why gold often disappoints in calm markets and why portfolio construction and risk management matter far more than chasing any single asset.
