Fed & interest rates

Retirement accounts in several countries may hold metal, and the rules governing them change far more slowly than rates.

Bond yields

Every year of forgone interest compounds inside a retirement account, which makes the cost unusually visible.

Inflation / CPI

A holding meant to last until retirement is judged over exactly the horizon this argument requires.

Safe-haven demand

Long-dated savings are rarely traded on news, which makes this among the most inert demand in the market.

Central-bank buying

A pension pot and a national reserve are built on the same reasoning at different scales.
