We take an in depth look at Gold and Silver this week with my guest, Ned Naylor-Leyland, Fund Manager of the Jupiter Gold and Silver Fund. Having known Ned for a while, this was always going to be a thought-provoking conversation!

 

Ned’s sceptical perspective led him naturally to Gold and Silver (1.45) and he explains why he is optimistic about the precious metals today given current market conditions (5.28). ‘The interplay between inflation and the ability of central banks to give you a return on savings’ is one of the relationships one must be aware of when investing in Gold and Silver (8.35).

 

We discuss the Jupiter Gold and Silver Fund, the objectives, his investment process and some parts of the world he avoids due to excessive operating risk (9.12). I then ask Ned how he shifts his portfolio between ‘attacking’ and ‘defensive’ positions depending on where we are in the economic cycle (11.14).  What does he mean by Silver being ‘Gold’s volatile sibling’? (13.02) And how does he carry out his fundamental analysis on Gold and Silver mining companies (14.57)?

 

We discuss the possibility of a great ‘reset’ (21.05). What will be the catalyst to drive Gold and Silver prices higher from here (24.07) and what is the role of it in an investment portfolio (26.05)? Ned has historically held Bitcoin so I ask him about it (27.27) and we finish with a couple of books to read with a gin and tonic in hand (29.07).
