Precious Metals: The Dominant Theme of 2025 Gold & PGM miners absolutely owned the market this year. If you weren't in them… your portfolio lagged the benchmark.

Gold price exploded early in the year 🌕 Safe-haven flows amid tariff drama, budgets, DeepSeek shock Strong production + not-yet-expensive valuations 💬 Simon: Still bullish on gold miners — not expecting another double, but valuations remain attractive if gold holds current levels. 🎓 2. Education Sector Winners 🎓 Stadio — +89% 🧑‍🏫 Killed it with distance learning demand and tertiary approvals 📉 Curo delisted; ADvTech* solid with +20% 🟣 3.
