Reader comment on: Sizing the Gold and Silver Bet

Yes i do agree that precious metals deserve a spot in one's portfolio. It has always shown to be a good long term hedge if anything else. The percent of allocation is up to the individual, but what goes up comes down....as history has showed... With that said, NOW with global metals consumption up, geopolitical situations escalating, MAJOR infrastructure and global pollution in Japan, China owning the majority of US treasury sales, foreign entities continuing to buy up US properties, commercial and other, at what point does the bubble burst? or is there no bubble as these factors play into the expansion the global investment in these commodities??
