Why arn’t many people investing in Gold?

Filed Under investing 

BiCUBIC asked:


I mean isn’t Gold the only element that has very high value over time? Cash succumbs to inflation but gold doesnt then how come people are investing their money in other stocks that have no value at all?

      *Huh!*…..like “gold” is so passe’…….;-)

      It made a great investment from 270-650, but I didn’t expect much more….do you….?

      ….and stocks are an investment in a company and its ideas which can carry a lot of weight with others willing to “invest”.
      Trick is…find areas that are depressed with good reasons to gain strength, and be a bit of a contrairian.
