It Seems Like Everybody’s a Precious Metals Bull These Days
It used to be that only a few eccentric paid a lot of attention to precious metals like gold and silver. As a hobby, and a coin collector, I may have been in that camp myself. However, now I turn on the television and pick up national ads and see that the gold and silver bug has caught on. A lot of this news is due to a steep price rally at the beginning of the year which caught the attention of the news, and in turn, the general public. The price has dropped off of the extreme highs of the spike, but it is still compared with last year’s prices.
Not only has the price of bullion been featured on the news, business is getting into the act of appealing to the general public. I have seen ads on TV, and in national magazines that offer gold or silver coins. I have also seen ads on TV that offer to buy people’s gold and silver items, and this is not just coins or bars, but silverware, candlesticks, jewelry, etc. that may contain gold.
Now I am not telling all of you to run out and do what these ads tell you. In fact, you would be much better served by educating yourself about the precious metals market so you can get the best deals when you buy or sell. Here are a couple of places to start:
