I'd say if gold goes above that level well before the end of the year, that might be a good place to throw in the towel and take profits.
But again, that's my uneducated opinion.
A lot of people who are newly into precious metals are interested in physically owning them, and I think maybe we should talk about the pros and cons of that.
Earlier, I touched on how precious metals are intrinsically valuable, and also how they can kind of be apocalypse insurance.
And what I meant by that is, if something really, really bad happens, like a war or a huge economic collapse or...
something else that disrupts the financial system and people's ability to cash out conventional investments like stocks and bonds, physical gold is still physical gold.
I find that in a lot of cultures and in a lot of families that have faced severe adversity in the recent past, maybe they've had to flee from their homeland or something, you sometimes find this tradition of passing down some gold jewelry or silver homewares or something
And in these families, grandma will often tell you that it's kind of insurance in case things go really bad again.
And there is some validity to that use case for physical precious metals.
Gold ETF shares or silver futures contracts aren't necessarily going to hold their value and be redeemable in a doomsday scenario.
But grandma's jewelry or the family silverware actually might.
Now, having said all that, on the flip side, keeping precious metals physically can be kind of a pain in the way that like other investments usually aren't.
Exactly.
And you got to have the diving board.
Right.
Yeah.
Very critical.
That's really important.
Yeah.
You have to keep your bullion safe.
