    ...think you should also add a 'multiplier factor' of age to your ratios...if your hitting retirement age pretty soon then more weight to the safer metal of Au...young and dumb (like me) then more to Ag...

    Pt is my pick before Au based on current prices. Pd really has had it's run but proves an 'industrial metal' can go bananas of 5,000% gain - pretty staggering but that what it did...

    This is what we call dyversify, you may move the ratios from time to time , but this is the best answer one can get right about now. :D:D

    Platinum on the rise ? Read this article in the SA news:

    http://www.dailytenders.co.za/Global/News/Article/Article.asp?ID=6799

    Serious labour problems threaten SA platinum production. SA produces 85% of the worlds platinum. To think this will not affect prices is like saying that middle east oil production will not affect prices ? Platinum is a good hedge along with gold and silver but a slightly different risk profile.

    Is that what they call an understatement?

    not sure if this is about our WANTED value ratios (12Ag/1Au/1.1Pt/Pd)

    or our holdings ratios (150Ag/1Au/<0.5Pt)

    still working on my holdings.
