Subj : Re: USD to Gold and Silver To : warmfuzzy From : k9zw Date : Thu May 11 2023 16:06:03 This is a complex problem, as the relative value of each commodity is uncertain, while at the same time the relative value of the unit of measurement (currencies) is changing while simultaniously being degraded by inflationary pressures. In addition to the values be difficult to forecast, there are two additional axis that are in flux: Risk and Relative Liquidity. It seems that the three form a sort of flexible triangle where if there is an advantage on one axis it causes adverse effects on the other axis areas. That the flexibility moves over time, and not in a linerar form, makes this ever so complex. The stance I am personally taking is portfolio-diversity, where I'm striving for stored value hedged in several different forms. YMMV, but the old addage "don't have all your eggs in one basket" is what I am taking to heart. --- Steve K9ZW via SPOT BBS --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 2022/07/15 (Linux/64) * Origin: SPOT BBS / k9zw (700:100/69) .
