One of the safest and oldest forms of currency that has successfully passed the test of time is the bullion. Bullion is comprised of precious metal bars and sold as a hedge against inflation, which can be a safe haven for dark economic times. Because investors don’t want to take any risks, especially in today’s volatile economy, they prefer to stick with the same portfolio year after year. However, a smart entrepreneur knows that it’s imperative to make a change when you’re not getting the expected return from your investments due to the risk of losing it all.
To put it simply, if you want to protect your investment and expand your portfolio free of risks, then you should consider investing in the following types of bullion:
- Gold bullion (numerous financial analysts have pointed out that gold will outperform any commodity in the next 5 years and the demand today is pretty high)
- Silver bullion (a consistent exchange medium, especially in China, silver has steadily outperformed gold and other commodities in the past 10 years in terms of percentage point appreciation)
- Platinum bullion (while not as appealing as gold and silver, platinum’s value is directly correlated to economic growth. Even though analysts don’t see any reason for an increase in its price in the near future, take note that its value could grow due to limited supply)
Why buy bullion?
Most people actually believe that their money is backed up by the full credit of the federal government. However, the truth is that notes issued by the US National Reserve have not been redeemable in gold since the Great Depression in 1934. The federal government decided to issue additional banknotes in order to combat the Great Depression, an action that only resulted in more inflation and the decrease in the value of the US Dollar. If you want to keep your hard earned cash safe from economic and political factors that you can’t really control, then you should seriously consider investing in gold, silver, and platinum bullion.
Why sell bullion?
While purchasing gold and silver bullion is a great way to secure your loved ones’ futures, it is important to note that sometimes it is best to sell them. The situations when selling bullion makes sense include:
- Paying off huge debt
- Getting back on your feet after you’ve been laid off
- Expanding your business
- Investing in other areas of your coin collection
- Funding your retirement
- Starting a business
- Purchasing your first home
