Financial markets are complex, and expert explanations often leave us more confused due to jargon and fancy language. Friends aren't much help either since most people don't understand finance. We've faced this problem ourselves, so we're starting "Please Help Me Understand." In this podcast, we talk to top finance experts, asking the simple questions you're too embarrassed to ask. We'll tackle stock markets, trading, investing, and more, making complex topics easy to understand. In the first episode, we delve into gold, one of the best-performing asset classes this year. With so much happening in the gold space, we reached out to two experts at the World Gold Council, an industry body renowned for its exceptional research. We spoke with Krishan Gopaul, a senior analyst, and Jeremy De Pessemier, an asset allocation strategist. This conversation is packed with valuable insights about gold. Whether you're mildly curious or deeply interested in this often confusing and complex asset class, this is the episode for you.
