Precious Metals

One critical sub-sector within commodities trading is precious metals. Some of the precious metals that you can invest in include: gold, silver, platinum and palladium. Gold remains the heavy hitting within this group, as it is used not only for jewelry and other adornments but as another currency.

Platinum and palladium have also become stores of wealth like gold over the past several years. Read our expert’s articles on what’s happening within the precious metals market now.
