Reading the Silver area of the forum got me wondering why many on here are Silver maximists/fundamentalists (tongue in cheek btw, before someone starts posting about religion). Logic would assume its because of budget in comparison to Gold, but many comments are exaggerated (re: inflation) given its role to play in the industrials. Before someone points out, aye, its heavily suppressed in the futures market. Dont get me wrong I own, have owned and trade Silver when I feel its needed, it just doesnt feel as secure as Gold. Maybe its a psychological thing but you get more benefits out of Gold and its primary purpose is monetary value which makes it a default on really anything.
Gold for me.
Would be interesting if posters on here prefers either Platinum or Copper, over Gold or Silver. I have only met one person in my life who is huge on Copper trading and investing.
