Gold, Bitcoin and The Old Portfolio Playbook

For decades, the “60/40 portfolio” felt like the smart, set-and-forget way to invest: 60% in shares for growth and 40% in bonds for stability. When shares wobbled, bonds usually rose. Simple. Reliable. It worked through bull markets, mild recessions and falling interest rates.
