TOP 10 Q & A's

Q10. How will a shift in the IDW alter your decisions about what to invest in and how have your investments performed over the past number of years?

 

 

 

As long as the global markets are deflating, we want to stay heavy in gold and gold mining shares. If we shift into an inflationary environment, we will want to own metals and energy of all forms, as well as other collectables.

 

For the year, our Model Portfolio, shown above, is up 36.54%, compared to a gain of 12.78% for the S&P 500. Over the years, since January 1, 2000, our Model Portfolio has outperformed the S&P 500 by a long shot.

 

A $1,000 investment in my hypothetical Model Portfolio on January 1, 2000, had grown to $4,998 by December 31, 2010. By contrast, the same amount invested in the S&P 500 during the same time, only increased to $1,257.
