Why invest in gold, silver, copper, molybdenum and other commodities?

Commodities are much needed in our everyday life. They are also directly related to the economy. As economies grow so does the demand for metals. Asian economies for example are expanding very quickly and metals are being consumed at a greater rate year over year. Mines have a finite lifespan and new mines are urgently needed to pick up the slack as older mines shut down. With increasing demand and a shrinking supply for metals new mines are needed to come on stream in addition to replacing those which are closing down. The opportunities for metal companies that have a defined sizeable deposit has never been better or profitable given the increasing price of these commodities. We are in the midst of a metals supercycle with no end in sight as Asian economies continue to expand.

Gold and silver have been gaining investor attention because in economic hard times they have historically been shown to perform well. We have watch lists for gold and silver companies and base metal companies (ie copper, zinc, nickel) which have potential for growth. Bank deposits offer very little opportunity for any real gain when inflation and taxes are taken into account but investing in selected commodities can outperform and provide a hedge against inflation.

Most of us lead busy lives and don't have much time to compile watch lists and relevant information on an ongoing basis. Information provided on this site and the links built into the watch lists provide a quick and easy to navigate format for simplifying the process of doing one's due diligence. Information presented on this site was gathered from a variety of sources and while we do our best to keep the information up to date we cannot guarantee its accuracy and ask that you view our disclaimer before proceeding through this site. 

It's important to be aware that most junior resource companies never end up becoming a mine. It doesn't matter how good the management or their geological team or the project itself, statistically few actually reach production. Regular attention to your investments is necessary. Long term "buy and hold" strategies are not generally recommended. There are however some excellent opportunities available for those who are prepared to do some due diligence and uncover the opportunities. Great rewards come with inherent risks attached. Managing those risks by doing some homework will enhance your opportunities for success.

We would appreciate your feedback suggestions and comments regarding this site.

Thank you and good Investing !
