    Don't agree if your an investor the bullion is your hedge. Forget about trying to time the market. We all know the gold and silver market has and continues to be manipulated. Keep stacking but put the bulk of your investments into solid property by paying attention to the cash flow.

    The manipulators are insolvent and eventually the $hit will hit the fan. Have faith in what you do

    Think and grow rich

    Spot on. At the end of the day, while wrcmad has the "literal" definition of a derivative right. In terms of the real world use of it, mmm shiney has nailed it perfectly.

    That is why my properties are always leased out and the rents keep going up because the "average" person thinks that the share market is better than the property market.Even if they don't themselves invest in the share market their super for most people is. Could never figure out how a fist full of paper equities is diversified

    Used to crack me up at work when people would tell me they were diversified because they invested in 3 different Australian market managed funds.
