Under the direction of Jean-Marie Eveillard, First Eagle has been heavily invested in gold. They wrote: “gold serves as a potential hedge against unforeseen events. Throught the 1990s and this decade, we grew concerned with the Fed policies dueing Mr. Greenspan’s tenure as chairman. The Fed’s easy money policies were one of the reasons we started our Gold Fund in the fall of 1993 and maintained a position in gold and gold related equities in all of other funds.”
