What is a difference between smart and dumb investor in precious metals? The dumb will buy Gold because it is down less than Platinum, the smart will not buy either as he will think: How come Platinum considered luxury for the rich of the world went down 70% in few months, isn't it because very rich become concerned about their evaporating savings and stopped buying expensive things. But dumb investor will say: What do I care Platinum or Rhodium or Palladium crashed, Gold didn't so it looks good I buy in hope others will flood Tiffany's of the world and buy all invenory fast.
