    Gold is on track for its best quarterly performance since 2010, up about 11% in Q3 as the Fed gets busy and the ECB threatens to. The moves - either by the central banks or the price, or a combination of both - have led to increased investor interest, as gold ETFs saw their biggest quarterly inflows in a year. GLD handily beats the surging SPY during Q3.

  • Hard to say. Should be higher relative to the S&P though.

    Stagflation = PMs outperform almost everything else.

  • Gold is the universal currency, but silver and platinum have more industrial uses. At the moment, SLV's percentage rise during Sept. has eclipsed GLD's. So, Cramer notwithstanding (as usual, he's a gold bug), which metal makes the better investment, or should I also consider palladium in this context??

  • Right now the order is Silver, Platinum, Palladium, then Gold. Silver tends to be the most volatile though, so stay flexible.

  • GLD has gone up so fast to my opinion it would correct to USD1700 which should be a healthy one and then take off to 1820 and once again a correction to 1750 USD and then see USD 2000 - 2400.
