An Interesting Alternative to Gold

The following is Adam Hewison's new video announcement regarding GLD, the gold ETF. Just click on the link if you are interested in watching the video for free with no registration requirements. Here is his preview below:

There is no doubt about it - gold is getting a lot of press and media attention lately. So the question is, is the move in gold over or is it just beginning?

I don’t believe the move is over on the upside for gold, but in my new two-minute video I’m going to share with you an alternative to gold that should do just as well for many of the same reasons. This is a big liquid market and has great upside potential and is less volatile than gold.

As always, our videos are free to view and do not require any registration. If you think this is an important video, I strongly suggest you share it with your friends and comment about it on our blog.

what a waste of time! All the video says is 1; that the GLD tracks gold, and 2; they have a price target of $1200-1300 for gold.

Everyone here is in 5th grade or higher. 1th grade material is not needed.

Okay....So when we click on the link to the video (That was obviously created for Miss Shumaker's 4th grade class), you get a commission if we join this club or buy something. Maybe you are lucky enough to get paid just by someone clicking on the link.

I guess that explains why you are touting a "new video" for a not-so-new ETF.

The video seems to be made for children. Trying to promote it here seems inappropriate. Just one reader's opinion-- I don't recall seeing this type of affiliate promotion before on SA.

If this is how you're "investing" in gold, you're really not.
(GLD) is paper gold and as such is a fraud and a scam. And while it does an adequate job of tracking real gold, that's about all it does.
The alternative of choice is (GTU). Stay away from GLD and (SLV) (which is paper silver) and instead look at GTU and (CEF). Real is real and GLD and SLV are nothing but fictitious financial instruments created to defraud their holders while wrecking their respective PM markets. What junk!!

Hi Everyone - SA monitors my blog/website and chooses which articles to publish on a daily basis. I do not submit articles to them directly, they have discretion over which articles to publish. I agree with the comments, this one should not have been published by them!

I am very concerned that GLD does not have access or right to the amount of gold that the ETF supposedly represents. (I am concerned across a broad range of ETF, even more so on the ETN's)

Just my paranoia, but be careful.
