Q: Good day! I'm wondering if there is still a case to be made for investing in gold, silver and other metals? If there is, how would you recommend investing? An ETF or individual stocks? Is there an ETF that covers all these metals?

Considering the geopolitical situation, how risky is the USD and investing in US assets? What percentage of YOUR portfolio would you assign to US assets looking to the next 5-10 years?

Q: We've been reading books on an eventual financial disaster for decades.
Does it make sense for anyone to have US cash these days .

We incurred some serious erosion of the USD in 2025 and things could get worse in coming months. Obviously DJT is ignoring all caution with record debt growth passed through his so called big beautiful bill.
With currency erosion , as Gold soars to new highs is there a prospect of countries dumping USD denominated bonds ?

Thanks to Ai , it seems that I now have 50% of my wealth on the US stock market.
I think I should start converting or have SOME strategy ... Please give us your opinion. Thankyou
