Would you buy Gold or Silver?

[momopi_IHB]

Would you consider an investment in Gold or Silver today, and why?

 

[effenheimer_IHB]

<p>Gold: bearish or bullish on the dollar? That would be my deciding factor.</p>

<p>Silver: No. It's an industrial metal, too prone to deflation in a recession. Save your pennies and buy after the recession hits and it goes on sale.</p>

<p>My $.02.</p>

awgee should be coming in shortly.....

 

[EvaLSeraphim_IHB]

I'd say silver, but that's just because it looks better on me.

 

[CalGal_IHB]

Awgee, where are you ? ? ?

 

[nirvinerealtor_IHB]

<p>No to Silver - too non-precious.</p>

 

[EvaLSeraphim_IHB]

I assume all the ladies are voting for platinum, right?

 

[effenheimer_IHB]

Eva, is that considered industrial or is it precious? When I think of platinum, the first thing that comes to mind is <strike>catastrophic pervertors</strike> <strike>catacalysmic pemserters</strike> catalytic convertors.

 

[EvaLSeraphim_IHB]

<p>>>is that considered industrial or is it precious?</p>

<p>Depends on who you ask and it's purpose. You and I have <em>very</em> different answers.</p>

 

[effenheimer_IHB]

Sorry, I comtemplate cars more than bling. I'm goofy like that.

 

[Trooper_IHB]

There ya go...that confirms the Men are from Mars theory !

 

[awgee_IHB]

Sorry it took me so long. Blame my supervisor.<p>


Is it a cop out to answer this question with a question?<p>


What do you think the Fed will do? And what might the effects of the Fed's actions be?<p>
