What will out perform this year PM, Coins or Stocks ?

Type2

This is what I think with the banks stocks all down now is the time to buy, I did buy a lot of City corp "C" City bank CTBK, B of a "BAC" and GE ticker "GE" last mo. but the big move will be tomarrow and just seeing what you all think. I know alot will go with Gold for inflation but I can buy a lot of bank stock for $950.00 Thanks in advance, Type2.

Stocks, by far IMO.

I put new money in the market for the first time in 9 years two weeks ago.

I took money set aside for error coins and put into the market one week ago.


IMO This is a once-in-a-lifetime stock buying opportunity.

Type2

I dident think it was my $$$ after I gave it to the Gov. When I gave them my $$$ it's not my money any more. They can give all they want. Just as long as the stocks I buy go up in price. But that is just me.

I think the question is... which stocks??

This is only my opinion ....

Look at stocks like GE, BAC, QQQQ, XLF, or throwing darts will probably work as well

lkenefic

Yeah... GE does look good... so does throwing darts!

I have no idea.

AIG made a few people alot richer last week,those whow bought mucho shares at 35 cents and sold at 2 bucks.

Even for the truly rare coins, that all collectors dream of owning, a one year period is way too short a period of time to forecast a rise, or dramatic fall.

For generics, this year will be a very probable ho-hum.

For gold, I would expect to see a close at levels above those at the start of the year.

For stocks(DJII, S&P), no question there will be a roller coaster ride, and at the end of the ride, somewhat higher than at the start.

But anyone buying any of the above should have a lot longer time period to hold/invest, than 1 year.

Higher yield corp. bonds, muni's and some high return income funds will be the safest route.

I have my own ideas but I will not share them because I am not an "investment advisor". I have also done exactly the opposite of what the invesment advisors have been touting over the last few years and find myself in very good shape to deal with what I believe the future holds.

"Investment" advice should be banned from this board.

"...IMO This is a once-in-a-lifetime stock buying opportunity..."

//////////////////////

Yup.

Gotta pick smart and lucky, though.

And, you gotta move in and out, and be ready to
SHORT stuff when it gets too pricey.

A simple buy and hold scheme is just too risky.

Also, some protection via options and other hedges
is smart.

...........

Owning some PMs is a must, but throwing everything
into them and letting them sit is not the answer. You
can build great hedges with GLD/SLV against your physical
stash. You can also use GLD/SLV as VERY profitable
trading vehicles.

.......

Defense spending will increase this year and beyond.

Young folks should be looking for STEALS in rental properties.
They should start TODAY.

Investment advice is not a problem. It only becomes a problem if someone is stupid enough to take the Investment advice given on the board.

all you have to do is look at history, what happened after the last "Bail Out?"

Isn't the Democrat party dong the same exact things
they did back in the 1930's, to "solve" the same
exact problems?

Why should we expect the democrat party outcome
to be any different then the outcome they gave us
in the 1930's?

If they print enough "money", then Citi, BAC and GE will certainly go "up".

It's all relative, man. Don't forget to pay your taxes on the "gain".

Sorry, I just can't get behind the idea of this government mismanagement.

OK, OK. Quit beating around the bush. So -- did you think that was good, sound, credible advice or not?

bidask

Stocks have alot of catching up to do to beat coins or precious metals this year.......2009.

And there are alot better stocks to buy than banks or GE.

The right choice is a matter of one's entry point and exit point. The studious will make money in all three.

Type2

WOW, That was not bad.

grabba

<< <i>WOW, That was not bad. >>



Not bad at all!

My mother had a $10,000 CD mature 3 weeks ago and she asked me what she should do. I told her to take half of it and buy Citi at $1 per share.

Of course she didn't but then she would have been mad if Citi had tanked (generally speaking of course) and I would have felt bad.

roadrunner

I think "some" generic coins could be promoted and do very well by the end of the year....but not most of them.

There are no doubt some great buys in stocks right now and others to show up throughtout the year. That said, I think the potential for another overall market setback from June-September is possible and could be hard to dig out of by December. If stocks still perform superbly by the end of year, then so will most other assets that are inflation driven. Citi and AIG may be up multiples, but let's not forget that they are insolvent entities that have little chance of ever legitimately cleaning up their balance sheets. Funny that some great gains on these former "penny" stocks can make everyone forget what their true fundamentals are about.

To keep this thread on topic, I'd vote for 90% silver coins having the best returns in 2009, at least better than stocks and "rare" coins.

roadrunner

Type2

Yes, If we ever see Gold or Silver coins come out of the mint this year they will be keepers so grab them if and when you can, But that is just me.

I'm investing long term - buying tangible assets and awaiting inflation.

Got out of the market 3 years ago, got out of the coin market a year and half ago, now back into the stock market. Its better for the majority of us in the stock market recovers.

ctf_error_coins

Sold the last of my C today premarket Wanted it for the long term, but with talk of a reverse split, I don't want to hold it, will switch to BAC.

Held the GE, Probably for the long term as i bought on a 15 year low.

Looking to buy BAC on a correction.

Edscoin

Something tangible that can be traded for something tangible. If you buy something that you have to sell, even IF it goes up. You are just going to get more worthless dollars for it.

ctf_error_coins

IMO a little too far a little too fast so I shorted the S&P today SDS for a short term move.

We will see

Had to give this one a bump, If I only picked up $50,000 worth man Iam doing O.K but only if. I think when I 1st posted this the markit went up 300+ ponts the next day or two and keep going.

barbershopper

As the stock market goes, so goes coins IMHO.
And the stock market scares me under the present administration.
Since your post, gold has closed above $1100 for the first time.
The dollar is falling in value on a regular basis.
My money in the market is mainly in energy and PMs.
Not the commodity but respected companies that produce them.
Right now, Apache Corp. (APA), British Petroleum (BP) and Newmont (NEM) make up 80% of my portfolio.

So far this year, they've done well.

I think the big buying opportunity was 6 months ago, still I'm hoping for at least a decent return from stocks. Gold seems to be catching on with the "secular" market, if it does we could see another "bubble" and gold at 2-3K.

You can't be serious. I must have studied a different history book than you, I don't remember any big "bailouts" in the 30's. and I thought we were going to stay away from politics here.

DeepCoin

For those of you who did not get this part of history, the major problem with the depression was a lack of liquidity. The present Treasury secretary studied this issue extensively in graduate school and while you may disagree with his actions, so far the results are better than I had expected.

I have a diversified portfolio and the stock portion of the assets are up 30% this year. There is still a lot of money on the sidelines and all that 401k money has to go somewhere each month. I would vote for the market in terms of guessing what will provide the biggest returns over the next year.

If I had discretionary income to gamble with, I would make a real estate play in that prices are depressed and interest rates are very low right now. This advice is worth exactly what you paid for it.

The absolute worst stocks you can buy are bank stocks. They are still carrying all of their non-performing CDOs, etc. All the bailout did was give them taxpayer $. I would date a 13 year old girl before buying any of them, and I don't do jailbait.

Type2

Yes I like both but a little shy with Gold and Sliver Iam still buying but not as much as the rest and with the "so far the results are better than I had expected" but will keep buying more stock for now. the day I 1st posted this back on March 22, the next day the S&P went up 500 ponits 7% that was killer Iam not a expert but that was a good call just wish I pick up more. So I am going in for more today. It's being pulled back like a rubberban and going to snap back very soon, But that is just me.
