<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 1358101, member: 3011&quot;]The common stocks are an ownership interest in the companies that use the silver and produce the electronics, solar panels and vehicles.&nbsp; There are many good companies that pay the common shareholders a high and rising dividend plus offer the possibility of price appreciation.&nbsp; I like silver a lot [but not as much as when it was $7], but only because I think the price will appreciate some more before the bull market ends and not because I can touch it.&nbsp; People who won&#039;t invest in things they can&#039;t touch and hold and keep in their house pay a terrible price in opportunity cost for it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, just one correction -- stocks are not a representation of a company.&nbsp; They are an ownership share in the company.&nbsp; I think you are confusing them with the &quot;tracking stocks&quot; that were popular for awhile in the 1990s which were a representation and not ownership.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
