Precious metals bullion is the preferred investment tool.
(1888PressRelease) July 19, 2011 - MIAMI, FL - Newcomers to the precious metals market may be understandably confused; should they buy ETFs, mining shares or physical bullion? What about the volatility of the market?
There is ongoing debate among market analysts and investment brokers as to whether it is preferable to buy ETFs (exchange traded funds), mining shares or bullion but consensus seems to be in favor of bullion. ETFs are a more costly way to invest in precious metals while mining shares arguably hold greater risk. Owning bullion allows investors to hold the actual physical metal, something that can afford psychological reassurance while also having the advantage of being easy to sell.
It is true that precious metals can be a volatile market and newcomers may be easily confused by the frequent fluctuations in price. However, precious metals bullion offers a safe-haven investment in times of economic uncertainty that is not to be found in, say pork bellies or coffee futures. It also offers the possibility of building a strong portfolio relatively quickly.
For investors interested in wealth protection, gold, in particular, is the most attractive investment, it has an intrinsic value that has stood the test of time over centuries and is held by most of the world's governments and central banks. Silver is also desirable as a hedge against inflation and has the attraction of being an easier market to get into for the smaller investor. Silver does tend to be more volatile than gold, but it also has huge industrial demand, making it less reliant on short-term fluctuations in the market. Palladium and platinum also see high demand from industry, particularly the automotive industry where they are used in the manufacture of catalytic converters.
