title: Gold as the ultimate store of value?
description: "Over the last decade, gold prices have more than DOUBLED, marking one of the best rallies in modern history.\nOver the last 5 years alone, gold is up 76% and on track to be the best-performing asset class of the year, excluding bitcoin.\nSo why gold keeps rising? Ever-rising debt and money debasement seem to be the main culprits. \nSince the pandemic, US national #debt has soared by $12 trillion while the US dollar lost ~25% of its value.\n\nSource: The Kobeissi Letter, BofA"
