[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3334509, member: 77814"]What are your preferences and what are your objectives? That will drive the answer that you are looking for, assuming you accept that answer. For instance, Say I want to play the "Daily Trading" game with silver the same way I do stocks, then holding physical silver is a killer to that strategy. ETF is the only way to go. If I want to hold Silver for the super long haul in hopes of a good return, then depending upon the amount of silver and the costs associated with an ETF of maintenance, etc costs compared to holding it in my own safe area (home safe, bank SDB, etc) and also calculating and having an available market in case of a quick sale, logistic costs, etc then that is the way to go (unsure of either as variables are all over the place). If you like to look at the pretty silver stuff, then an ETF does no good. As to Forex .. well, that's entirely different.[/QUOTE]
