Do consider that gold is a capital gain asset. Which means, you make money when you buy low and sell it at higher price. Note that for every trade you make, you pay a small commission called, "spread". Another note is, once you sold your yellow metals at high price, you may have to wait for a pull back before getting back a good "low-price" to re-enter position. If you do this a few times and are making good positive returns, then it is now a "trading"

All the best in your precious metals investment.

American Buffalo, nice! Care to share the picture?

NICE! A very MUSCULAR BULL!

If we all can know when it will go up, there will no be begger on the street no more...

Hrm, I doubt this. 916 gold is meant for jewelry. 999 is always for investment. COMEX prices are traded based on 999.

Nevertheless, for investment, always go for 999.

All the best in your PM investment

However, it is the only bullion back by our Bank Negara and they have been very consistent with their buyback scheme. Even though you pay more for it, you would get "higher" when you sell it back because of the consistent spread.

I previously did a check on it. You can refer to my blog here: http://investsilvermalaysia.com/kijang-ema...d-margin-check/

Nevertheless, UOB offers the most competitive gold bullion - The Aussie kangaroos and Canadian Maples are currently the best deal in town

This will never ends. Both physical and paper has it's pros and cons. Buy at your own preference.

If you understands the fundamental of gold, it is to counter fiat currency. Paper gold is just another version of fiat currency. Overally, it is attractive to buy paper gold. Low spread, easy trading, easy selling, buying at minimum weight of 1g, no security issues and you don't have to bother about shipment of goods. The only catch here, is there really GOLD? Some may care less about it so long they profits but think about it for a moment - money in the first place was designed to be paper gold. Somehow, money is no longer backed by any gold but paper gold is? Ponder about this.

All the best in your precious metals investment.
