> Hedge defined "To hedge, in finance, is to take an offsetting position in an asset or investment that reduces the price risk of an existing position. A hedge is therefore a trade that is made with the purpose of reducing the risk of adverse price movements in another asset. Normally, a hedge consists of taking the opposite position in a related security or in a derivative security based on the asset to be hedged."

> "What Are the Advantages of Buying Gold Over Treasuries? Gold is popular among investors because it can be used as a hedge against currency devaluation, inflation, or deflation. It’s also liked for its ability to provide a safe haven during times of economic uncertainty. When it comes to gold and taxes, depending on your income level, Treasury investments are typically more favorable tax-wise."

I have hedged my heavy US bond & US Treasury & US stock positions & US dollar positions with another asset class.

My hedge is producing outsized returns is the anecdotal observation.
