Momentum says “real assets” returns diverge sharply as gold rally fades
- Momentum Global Investment Management flagged wide return dispersion across inflation hedges, with gold, REITs, and UK index-linked gilts diverging sharply since Apr 2024.
- Momentum Real Assets Growth & Income Fund, launched Apr 2024, showed higher returns with lower volatility than most comparators, except gold.
- The fund exited gold in Feb 2026, citing a valuation disconnect from its “risk-off” role and heightened correction risk.
- UK index-linked gilts up to 10 years outperformed the all-stocks linker index, driven by higher implied near-term inflation expectations tied to war tensions.
- RAGI posted 8.7% for Jun 2025–Jun 2026, following 13.6% for Jun 2024–Jun 2025.
