I still can't get my mind wrapped around 2k much less 3k.... Like you, I am mighty glad I satisfied my gold urges decades ago.
Yes, I was thinking gold was too high when it was $1,800. I thought I might be "buried" when I bought a one ounce American Gold Eagle when it was $2,600. I should have bought these type coins much earlier, but I had other priorities.
What's next? Just hold out more? The only Gold Coin I possess is a 2006 1/4 oz. "Krug". I wish I bought more gold except the jewelry that I so adore.
Even if I had the money, I would be iffy, just my thoughts as the economy recovers. I might buy when there is a settling point. Still not sure about that.
You have to remember one thing. We might not have money for a reason, it's called marriage. I haven't had any money in my wallet in years!
Bubble.....from $1800 to $3100 in a year. Being fueled presently by people panicking over the markets selling stocks and dumping into commodities. Whenever the tariffs scares play through and things stabilize at some point in the future, gold will have a correction. Not sure to what price level, but there will be a correction. Personally I'm holding on to my gold for now, but if it hits $3500 I may start to cash out and start putting some into the markets. Good buying opportunities there developing. I laid $1800-$2400 for most of my gold, so I'd be ok with taking profits.
I've been thinking about NVDA since it has tanked. I'm kicking myself because I missed that ride back in 2015. It's down to around $100 since the market tanked. I talked to my wife about it 10 years ago, I had a feeling it was going to explode and it did. At the time, adjusted for splits, it was about $3 per share then......but I was cash poor and refused to borrow money to buy in.
