[QUOTE="Juan Blanco, post: 1579035, member: 41665"]I'd like to know what the (other) bullionists expect to "make" by November 2014. The US stock mkt (SPY) is UP +12.6% YTD ; Silver (SLV) is UP +22.4% in 2012. If I was picking 'either/or' [U]and[/U] my stated goal was 'to MAKE MONEY' I'd want to know in how many consecutive calendar years Silver outperformed stocks (or different categories of stocks.) This time is different? Again I'll note: historically, as an asset class Silver has a[I] fairly high[/I] risk-return profile. Gamblers do look at different risk-equivalent options, no? fwiw, I called Gold for clients in 2002 and added GLD to my portfolios in 2005. I (still) like PMs generally and bullion (as a Paper hedge) even more... but [I]all-or-nothing[/I] is an idiot's dilemma really. True players will agree this PM rally [I]may [/I]be somewhat 'long in the tooth,' and there WILL be times to short PMs. Especially for those holding a significant stash - again - study & carefully consider those short/bearish PM ETFs (mentioned earlier) for timely & periodic hedging & portfolio protection.[/QUOTE]
