<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clawcoins, post: 2805971, member: 77814&quot;]That&#039;s exactly the way I look at it too.</p><p>PMs are a storage of wealth / hedge.&nbsp;&nbsp; Sure, there are spikes where one can make money.&nbsp; But waiting 5 or 10 yrs between big spikes is not something one wants to do as an investment.</p><p><br /></p><p>Compare that to buying certain stocks .. I recently bought into starting at $17 SQuare corporation.&nbsp; Now around $27/share.&nbsp; Even Ferrrari stock IPOd at $40 now over $100.&nbsp; There are stagnant stocks, and GE was one of them. I bought at $24, slowly went to $30 ... and decreased to $25 or something now.&nbsp; I got out at $28 on the way down.&nbsp; Of course this was a DRIP, but a slow, really slow DRIP.&nbsp; Not worth it looking back.&nbsp;&nbsp; My New Markets Bond Fund on the other hand gives Monthly dividends and is basically looking to be at 10+% this past year.</p><p><br /></p><p>Compare those to PMs and PM are too volatile and difficult to understand by various influences.&nbsp; A stock is easy by comparison .. competition, markets, revenue &amp; profitability, p/e ratios etc which are all numbers you can look at.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
