<p>[QUOTE=&quot;InfleXion, post: 1241980, member: 29012&quot;]If I had gold eagles to spare I would swap one just to diversify. Platinum is an industrial metal for cars and is also used in chemical plants, but that&#039;s moot if the economy isn&#039;t doing well. Now if you were to ask me do I think platinum is a better investment than gold is right now, I would be on the fence. There&#039;s no denying it looks like a good trade based on historical context, but there are reasons for gold&#039;s rise. The other thing in my mind is on the off chance we do end up with a barter system you will want gold over platinum because that&#039;s what other people will want. Although if we end up with a gold standard and holding gold becomes illegal you&#039;ll want to have other metals too. Platinum is selling out fast on a lot of web sites so it does seem like people think it&#039;s a good buying opportunity.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
