  • Here's your money briefing for Tuesday, April 29th.

  • I'm Julia Carpenter for The Wall Street Journal.

  • Gold.

  • A lot of people have opinions on how, if, and when you should buy it.

  • But in times when the market is volatile, some investors turn to it for protection.

  • Gold will do much, much better than stocks if there's a depression or inflation.

  • So it's an effective hedge in your portfolio against chaos,

  • against war, against inflation, things like this.

  • But how should you think about adding this controversial investment to your portfolio?

  • We'll talk with Wall Street Journal reporter Aaron Back about gold,

  • its history, and its sister commodity, silver.

  • That's after the break.

  • If only life had a remote control, you could pause or rewind.

  • Well, life doesn't always give you time to change the outcome, but prediabetes does.

  • Take the one-minute risk test today at doihaveprediabetes.org.

  • Brought to you by the Ad Council and its prediabetes awareness partners.

  • Investors and historians agree.

  • Americans turn to gold in the midst of financial turbulence.

  • Wall Street Journal reporter Aaron Back joins me.

  • Aaron, in your story, you described gold as a bit of a controversial investment.
