Physical gold and silver trusts — inflation hedges and safe-haven exposure during risk-off periods.
GLD is the SPDR Gold Trust, backed by physical gold. SLV is the iShares Silver Trust. Both store physical metal directly — value derives from the metal itself, not equity holdings, so they sit differently in a portfolio. A 5-10% allocation is typical as an inflation / dollar-weakness hedge.
