I enjoyed your article a lot and gave me some great insight into ETF’s, mutual funds, and managing a portfolio. I invest more in physical metals, but in these times I believe adding stocks/mutual funds/etf’s etc. that invest in ONLY precious metals is a good consideration. In these economic times metals are highly sought after and supply is not meeting demand. If you look at the book The Visual Investor, and Cross Market Analysis, you will see that a weakening dollar is lead by a strengthening gold stock. Most precious metals mirror gold. Also when oil is usually a pre-indicator to what gold will do and oil has started to climb up slowly again. Will precious metals follow? As with all investments you will have to do some research, but I believe they will.

Is it make sense to own like ETF’s or the actual physical metal itself such as gold or silver?
