Long-term Returns on Precious Metals are Truly Impressive says Bill Hionas
(1888PressRelease) A look at value over three or five years shows impressive return on investment for precious metals bullion.
MIAMI, FL – Amidst a pretty volatile market that has definitely not been dull in recent weeks, it is worth remembering how far precious metals have risen, in terms of price, over the last few years. While there have been many price swings, some meteoric rises and some spectacular drops, nevertheless, the overall trend has been sharply upward. If we take a look at the precious metals charts for the last few years we see that, in five years, gold and silver have both more than tripled in value, platinum has risen by over 50% and palladium has more than doubled. In terms of return on investment; this is undeniably impressive. Those investors wise, or fortunate, enough to have purchased bullion five years ago can hardly complain.
To take this illustration further, we should not forget that the fall of 2008 saw a deep recession from which we are still recovering. If we look only at the increase in prices for bullion over the last three years, we find that gold has more than doubled in that period alone, and is likely to have tripled before the end of 2011. Silver has quadrupled in the same three-year time span while platinum has more than doubled and palladium has, approximately, quadrupled. Again, we see impressive medium- to long-term returns for savvy investors who bought when prices were at their lowest.
Does this mean it is too late to make a significant profit? Not at all. The underlying economic factors that have driven up the price of precious metals bullion over the last few years are unchanged. Market analysts forecast a continuing uptrend in the market for some time to come with talk of $2000 for gold and $50 for silver coming sooner rather than later.
“Prudent investors will now be waiting for dips in order to acquire more bullion,” says Bill Hionas who leads a team of seasoned brokers at Pan American Metals of Miami. “Our clients are interested in wealth protection and are looking for an investment that will hold its value; precious metals bullion provides that protection.”
