dpilot... i have yet to pull the trigger to get back into stocks however i do realize that the risk downward is MINIMAL and the risk upwards is EXPONENTIAL... therefore i am contemplating next week... ultimately i would feel more comfortable with a break through of resistance or a good bottom set in...  something that looks to be forming.


dgv959 i started with just a thousand dollars and invested in slow moving stocks. made a few trades to learn about the commisions, see it in real life, see the real transaction... see the account actually go down <--- :)

SLW is a great silver stock to try first hand... GLD would be a more slower moving stock, a stock tied to the movement of gold... i like a faster paced AGQ though its not for everyone and not for me on some days.  SLW and HL are two stocks that have treated me well...

its good to know that somebody actually reads my stupid silver posts... HA...

the only advantage to invest in silver or gold over farmland is that it is easily sold after appreciation so your savings are caught up with the appreciation of land...

i will sell all my pms and stocks if i see land i want and can afford...
