Depends on individual lo. Some with the bravery of Rambo some are not. Malaysia is not safe. I rather be safe than sorry. After all these are my hard earned money.

I think buying physical gold is still the best. U will have more choice to whom u sell it to.

need advise, gold will going low or what? because when i bought in already around 129.00. so planning to sell off now and rebuy again when it going low
*
Maybank buy back price is rm131.59. So if u sell now, u r earning rm2.59/gram. If I were u, I will keep a bit longer. Sell it at higher price and stay away from paper gold. Instead, buy physical. It was rm140/gram 2 weeks ago and if u sell at that time, U could've earn more then.. Anyway, this is just my2cent. Follow ur own strategy.

ya i was plan to sell around 138/137, too bad i missed out.

so u advise to keep it longer? because i just worry it will drop until 120 or 110 which cost me rugi more.
*
U should be happy if it drop till 120/110. Buy as many as u can afford. Lower down ur average and sell at 13x/gram. But I don't think it will go down to 120/110 la. Most is 12x/gram. U r lucky that ur cost is 129/g. My average is 145/g, so I'll be very happy if it really goes down to 120/110. I'm going all in to reduce my average price. I'm now waiting to sell off everything and buy physical instead.

why u will be happy if like that? mean u lost around rm20/30 per gram right?
*
U won't lose if u don't sell. I will buy more when it goes down to lower my average. Then sell once it goes up and make some profit

says UOB offering the best spread so far in the market.

Paper gold
user posted image

The spread is 2.4% but not protected by PIDM

Physical gold
user posted image

The spread for 1 gram bullion is 39.0%
but
the spread for 100 gram bullion is 2.385%

Paper gold no need to worry storing and security for purchased. But 1 thing i dont understand is why the spread for 1 gram and 100 gram is that big

For this scenario, i might go with UOB bullion when gold price hit RM 130/gram
*
Spread is lower yes. But MGIA is more convenient to me. How big is 1g of gold? I'm sure u can find someplace to keep in ur house. Unless u r talking about 1kg gold bar. Physical is better coz u can sell to whoever u want without worrying about spread. I can sell to investors at spot price. I see it this way, banks can increase their spread anytime they want in order to discourage u to sell when spot price is high. They can make any rules they want.

how to know when is the lowest and determine how much to restock?

sorry just a beginner here ..

No one knows when is the lowest price. The best is u just buy based on ur holding power and follow ur own strategy. One thing for sure is do not loan money to invest. Coz u won't know when u will be getting ur money back.

There's no definite answer to that. Do more reading and research urself. Don't just listen to what ppl say. No one in the world knows what is going to happen.

is it good time to enter into GIA account now? noob here, wanna try investing in gold
*
RM138/g is ok la... it's hard to tell whether is it a good time to buy or not. but as far as i observe since aug last year, this is not the highest price nor the lowest.. prices had been to as high as 149/g and as low as 129/g. so it's up to u to decide ur gameplan.

Like to have your view, pros and cons, on my wife's idea.

She came back from the bank today after putting something in the safe box. She noted some gold jewelry (baby's gifts) and suggested selling them.

Yes, would be good to sell them at gold's peak price.

Her view is, with the money in FD, UT etc, it will grow.

Your view?
*
Gold's price is at low now. So not a good idea to sell now. Yes, Money in FD or UT will grow but so do inflation. Depends on the interest that u earn from FD or UT will be larger than inflation or not. How much gold will rise in 10 years time? Which can fight inflation? Gold or ur money (from selling ur gold now) + interest? U do ur own calculation.

Hi,

Is anyone familiar with physical gold investment? With the rapid rate of devaluation of the fiat currency, is it a wise choice to invest a portion of our portfolio into physical gold investment? Maybe like 10%?

Does anyone know where to buy legitimate gold in Malaysia? Gold bullion or coins better?
*
U pay more premiums for coins...both with pros and cons.

Buy low sell high = profit. Sell lower than purchase price = lose.
