Copper and Gold via ETFs

In the long run commodities match inflation. In the short term you’re trying to out bet seasoned traders. I don’t fancy either approach.

In short term periods of high inflation and crashing stock market prices it could do well. If you want to make money in the long term you buy something that produces value and grows.

I don’t back my ability to time trading in and out of gold better than someone on a trading floor with a Bloomberg terminal.
