A large amount of money is moving from metals and short-term money funds (lower savings interest rates now) into tech stocks and crypto.

My contacts from 30-plus years of investment management experience and 2 PB tenures tell me that newer crypto/Bitcoin buyers are taking $$$ from stocks, esp. speculative stocks, rather than bonds or money market funds.

It's definitely getting lots more attention than a few years ago, let alone a decade ago.

My antidotal experience is similar. The gold bugs/stackers fit a pretty specific demographic. I don't see the under 30 crowd having much interest, in general, for precision metals, bonds or mm accounts. There are a ton of factors and reasons involved, but my guess is that the stacker/pm mentality will be greatly diminished in 20-30 years.
