<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1221078, member: 26302&quot;]I would agree with volatile, and with the fact that silver is historically high. Risk? I am not so sure any PM is the riskiest. Risk is the chance of decline to me, its not volatility like it is measured historically in Finance. PM can never go to zero, so by default do not have the lower end risk as most financial instruments.</p><p><br /></p><p>Is the price today relatively high? Yes. Is silver among the riskiest investment options? To me it depends on how you are investing. Buying calls or puts on any commodity? Yes, that is risky as all get out. Buying and holding a storable commodity? Not nearly as much, considering zero is not your bottom. The greatest aspect of PM is being able to easily store forever, an aspect missing in almost all other commodities. Then, factor this purchase in with the blend of your other investments, and that lowers your risk further, since PM will be in inverse relation to many other investment&#039;s performance. </p><p><br /></p><p>In short, as part of a overall portfolio, and not too heavy in PM, even at today&#039;s prices I would not consider PM too risky. Silver is volatile, but physical possessed silver as part of a portfolio is muhc lower risk. I am still not saying its a good buy, just not that risky.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
