<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SD51555, post: 2295403, member: 71871&quot;]Your objectives sound like mine.&nbsp; You want the investment, but you also like to look at them.&nbsp; Down my road, I have steered back to eagles on almost everything.&nbsp; I say that because the market for them is about the most transparent of any product other than plain bullion.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>That being said, the platinum eagle market is a real stink hole right now.&nbsp; So beware there.&nbsp; Otherwise, gold and silver eagles are always pleasant to look at, and easily priced on the buy and sell side.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I dabbled in SLV when silver was riding a rocket to $50.&nbsp; That&#039;s the one time I did pretty well in an ETF.&nbsp; In when silver was $30, out around $44.&nbsp; The day silver jumped up around 8% and SLV didn&#039;t budge due to some fat cat demolishing the options on it, I bailed out.&nbsp; Not a perfect market.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I wouldn&#039;t touch any of the ETFs right now.&nbsp; It&#039;s all fun and games until the metals blow off double digit percentages in a few days.&nbsp; I got a sick feeling we&#039;re gonna see that in the near future.&nbsp; As soon as my option expires on GDX, I think I&#039;m headed for the exit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
