Times are changing, as investors prefer to invest in gold or silver since precious metals continue their run as the best performing assets for the fourth time in the last five years.
Investors who have invested in precious metals have benefited a 42% return on gold or silver prices in 2010. Compared to gold, prices on silver showed an astounding growth in 2010, which was nearly 80% in contrast to gold’s 29% growth.
