    Silver. Gold and Plat have had very nice gains and gold is at an all time high. They usually don't run together with one really breaking out then the other (s) as ratios get out of line. In fact many trades use these ratios to adjust their investments for max. gain.

    All three are great choices,

    but I would choose Silver because as of today it is the cheapest RELATIVE to the other two metals. So you have the greatest leverage of all three PM's.

    The only reason I would buy gold or platinum is if I was buying a huge $$ amount and silver would be extremely difficult and/or expensive to store just because you have to buy so much more of it.

    A wonderful, 50,000 ounce bar of silver, would be nice.

    I buy gold as insurance only so I don't sweat the price swings

    I buy silver as speculation for profit and I do sweat the price swings

    I trade pm stocks and futures for income and I sweat all the time

    I would buy silver in 1 ounce and 10 ounce versus 100 ounce bars, the coin shops and metal brokers in my area dont want the big bars too hard to resell to the average Joe.

    Silver may well be "the play" but I would prefer a MS65 St Gaudens, I can always enjoy looking at it!

    problem with the 1 oz is all the extra in over spot by the time you get 100 total. So for "Investment" purpose buy in bulk. A 100 ouncer on the BST lasted about 14 hours or so yesterday

    You need to look at the buy/sell spread it really isn't much more expensive since you get more than melt at the time of sale. Old Junk silver is about as cheap as you can buy bullion so that's a good option too.

    The other concern would be what if you only need to liquidate 63 ounces that is why I would get 10 ounce bars and 1 ounce rounds
