In this brief market update, Barry Investment Advisors' founder, Joseph Barry, discusses recent movements in the gold market and why the metal remains an essential part of a diversified portfolio. While gold prices have surged alongside other assets this year, Joe explains how profit-taking and short-term volatility can emerge even when the long-term fundamentals remain strong.
