JG, definitely sorry to hear about the gold stock movement.
Question, you were in gold stocks, right?
Did the actual price of gold follow the stocks down or did it stay put?
I was basically wondering if the two are tied closely together or if they tend to rise and fall more independently?
I’ve heard some on this forum talk about buying gold as opposed to buying gold stocks. Would be quite a chore to buy gold and keep an eye on it in the home safe or trust that it would stay put in a safety deposit box in a bank. Also, gold bars would be awkward if one needed to convert some to cash. Coins would be much more practical it seems. (I think some of this was covered in another thread).
Anyway, was wondering about the various approaches to investing in gold and wondered how closely they all tracked in value to one another.
