In a previous discussion about popular investment varieties, Liu Rui, Vice President and Chief Investment Officer of BlackRock CCB Wealth Management, noted that gold still holds long-term allocation value. He pointed out that from a long-term perspective, the rationale for allocating to gold remains solid, with structural support coming from trends like deglobalization, a weaker US dollar, and continued buying by global central banks. These driving factors, emerging from phased global developments, are largely irreversible. However, he also cautioned that investors should be wary of high volatility caused by crowded trades in the short term.
