Citi Study Highlights Portfolio Efficiency of Gold and Bitcoin Combination

Implications for Investors
The findings indicate that adding both gold and bitcoin improved overall portfolio efficiency over the past decade, a notable signal for portfolio managers considering diversification beyond conventional assets.
