[QUOTE="Cloudsweeper99, post: 1430642, member: 3011"]Regarding the OP, I would say that most of what the guy said is correct from a historical persepctive on PMs and the USD. But that might not provide any useful information about what to do for the next year, or decade, or tomorrow. PMs have to be traded to do better than inflation. They got way too cheap in the 1990s and spent a decade playing catch up. Now they probably are about fairly valued, but it still looks like a bull market to me so I plan to hold for awhile [with no illusions about the gold to the moon nonsense]. And Greece isn't the US and the US isn't Weimar. The US Treasury and Fed have much more control over the value of the currency and its issuance than Greece or 1920 Germany. I don't really see that changing soon, although other problems exist. Making money in the markets isn't easy, and I'll bet the friend isn't better than average at it.[/QUOTE]
