Abstract: Long-term investors invest their money in funds that offer them better returns and security at a lower risk. The cost of borrowing and risk returns need to be balanced. Due to a number of causes, including both macro and microeconomic ones, capital markets are more likely to experience increased volatility. The stock market is affected when any of the elements change, which makes investors doubt their investments. By hedging their money, investors can reduce the danger of their capital being depleted by stock market volatility while still managing their portfolios. The goal of hedging is to reduce or eliminate the risks associated with investing. Hedging gives investors a safe margin for saving money and aids in risk management. Protecting the money and avoiding gains are the primary goals of hedging. Hedging is akin to insurance in that it shields us from market risks and volatility, just as insurance shields us from unanticipated losses. There are several strategies to hedge money, and buying gold is one of them. The purpose of this study is to ascertain whether investing is a better choice than hedge funds. What function does investing in gold provide as a hedge against the volatility of the Indian stock market? This paper tries to investigate the moment transition between gold and stock market.
