Precious Metals Investing and the Economy

FAQs

Why Invest In Gold?

Reason #1: Store of Value for Wealth Protection

Gold and other precious metals act as a  store of value because they maintain their value over a long period. Gold’s purchasing power has remained stable and consistent over time, while the US dollar has lost 98% of its purchasing power since 1971. Inflation is on the rise, weakening the dollar.

Typically, gold and silver have an inverse relationship with the dollar's buying power. Gold IRAs provide protection from stock market volatility, geopolitical instability, and weathering the inevitable cycles of inflation and recession.

Reason #2: Retirement and Asset Security

Simply put, money is not an investment. Money is an instrument to transfer goods and services from one party to another party.

The only thing that matters when you are retired is your buying power, not how many dollars you have.

In retirement, when true inflation reaches 15%, your cost of living potentially doubles every 5 years. One of the key benefits of investing in gold is offsetting the weakening dollar and thereby securing your retirement savings.

Reason #3: Greater Control

Private ownership of tangible, physical precious metals puts you in a better position when the standard market assets are in a downturn.

Gold IRAs and private precious metals investments enable an investor to hedge and protect against losses experienced by stocks, bonds, and paper asset portfolio holdings.

What Precious Metals Are IRA approved?

How will your 401K or IRA perform when the next financial crisis hits? If the stock market were to take a downward turn, or worst, experience a catastrophic crash, would you run out of money in retirement? Would you be forced unexpectedly back into the job market? Fortunately, you can manage your risk with precious metals.

Whether it is a bear or a bull market, precious metals are the ideal asset to hold for portfolio diversification and retirement. Simply stated, gold, silver, and other precious metals have stood the test of time and will continue to.
