- Silver: Silver continues to grow exponentially as a safety net for many investors keen on hedging against market uncertainties since it has a negative correlation with investment instruments like stocks, bonds, treasury bills, and other asset classes. It has continued to have an excellent purchasing power over time, similar to gold.
