Gold seems to make headlines every day now. If you don't own any gold, should you buy some now? If you do already own some, should you buy more? I've never been a huge gold bug. You're supposed to own gold for a number of reasons, including having it as a store of value when the spit hits the fan. Some claim that with countries, and especially the U.S., printing money as fast as possible, ballooning the debt and devaluing their paper-based currencies, gold is the only real money. But gold doesn't generate dividends or produce cash flow and is worth only what the next person is willing to pay for it. As you may know, I like my investments to pay me cash on a regular basis. That being said, I do believe gold belongs in your portfolio - especially right now. Over thousands of years, gold has more or less kept up with inflation. There's an old axiom that an ounce of gold typically has the same value as the price of a man's quality suit. Obviously, the price of gold will have strong moves higher and lower, but over time, that is generally perceived to be the value. I have reason to believe that it could go even higher THIS year.

And right now, the conditions are right. There is currently a MASSIVE gold shortage. (Click here to see my latest research on the topic.) Try calling a gold coin dealer and see what kinds of premiums they charge you - that is if they even have any gold coins to sell. |
