Base metals got busted after Red Kite's $1 billion fund lost 20% in the past one year. Base metals have lost as much as 27% this year on rising global inventories and slowing global growth. This is one of the reasons why we keep on emphasizing the need for investing in gold and silver. Stock can crash like a pack of cards, bonds yields can nosedive, other derivative instruments can go haywire but not gold and silver. Cheap money created by various central banks to stimulate growth will only result in some financial instruments falling into the bear grip. When the law of gravity acts, the technical factors as well as fundamental factors are out of the picture.
Gold and silver will not get affected by the cheap money flowing into them. There will be wild swings in gold and silver which will not alter the long term bullish trend. Stocks markets have been rising for the past six months, bonds yields are firm. What happens to gold and silver when global equities have a sustained fall. Gold and silver will also fall when global stock markets fall due to liquidity factors, but the percentage fall in gold and silver will be less than the percentage fall in stocks and gold and silver will recover faster than any other financial instrument.
Over leverage in any financial instrument is like hitting the axe on your own leg. Investors need to have a balanced portfolio which gives them a decent return. Gold has risen over $15% from the $602 low in 2007 which is a great return. There is no limit to ones greed. When greed takes over an investor he will be either a king or a pauper and in most cases a pauper. One needs to overcome greed and act prudently while making investment decisions. Due to technology, markets switch their portfolio very quickly which increases volatility. The use of trailing stop losses and booking partial profits prevents returns from moving into negative territory.
