Precious Metal IRAS
The governments of the world are committed to devaluing their currencies. If the Federal Reserve meets its inflation goals, the Dollar will lose 2% in value every year. If your investments are based in Dollars, they have to earn at least that much every year just to break even. Even worse, many financial experts that predicted the 2008 crash are predicting an even greater crash to come. Former Federal Reserve Chair Alan Greenspan said in October 2014, “The Fed’s balance sheet is a pile of tinder, but it hasn’t been lit … inflation will eventually have to rise.” Greenspan also said in February 2015 that U.S. stocks are “without a doubt extremely overvalued.” In 2013 the Government Accounting Office said the U.S. “is on an unsustainable fiscal path.” In 2010 former Fed Chair Ben Bernanke said U.S. debt levels were “unsustainable,” and our national debt has increased dramatically since then. Since Congress won’t stop spending, dollars will continue to be created and the dollar will continue to be devalued. They can print Dollars, but they can’t print gold!
Under these conditions it makes sense to diversify a portion of your portfolio into precious metals. Precious metals have become a popular alternative for assets held in IRA, 401(k), 403(b), and pension plans. Transferring funds into a precious metals IRA is a government approved, tax-free and penalty-free transfer. Call our offices today to make the transfer and insure your portfolio.
Investing in gold should not be done for the purpose of seeing returns so much as to protect your overall portfolio. While “traditional” investments can be left to make their traditional gains, investing 15-30% of your IRA in precious metals serves to help insure your portfolio against a drop in the value of the dollar.
As the joke goes, when the economist was asked how he was doing he responded, “compared to what?” When considering how our investments are performing it is important to look at the entire picture. The number of dollars in your account may be rising, but their overall purchasing power may be decreasing. Are your investments keeping up with the rising costs of commodity prices such as oil, food, and education costs?
Bullion Trading
Physical possession of bullion is the classic hedge against the troubled U.S. dollar. Our relationships with world mints and first-tier metal suppliers allows RPMEX to provide close spreads and timely delivery of hundreds of bullion products including bars, ingots, coins, or grains. We manage a two-way market allowing for timely liquidity when needed, keeping your satisfaction as our primary goal.Economic times are difficult. The economic recession continues, despite what is said in the media. U.S. debt has now topped $17 trillion, and the U.S. government spends three times what it collects in tax revenues, counting off-budget expenses. If the Federal Reserve meets its inflation goals, the Dollar will lose 2% in value every year. If your investments are based in Dollars, they have to earn at least that much every year just to break even. Even worse, many financial experts that predicted the 2008 crash are predicting an even greater crash to come. Former Federal Reserve Chair Alan Greenspan said in October 2014, “The Fed’s balance sheet is a pile of tinder, but it hasn’t been lit … inflation will eventually have to rise.” Greenspan also said in February 2015 that U.S. stocks are “without a doubt extremely overvalued.” In 2013 the Government Accounting Office said the U.S. “is on an unsustainable fiscal path.” In 2010 former Fed Chair Ben Bernanke said U.S. debt levels were “unsustainable,” and our national debt has increased dramatically since then. Portfolio diversification is important now more than ever, and precious metals have been a time-tested way to store wealth for thousands of years.
Rare Coins
With the Federal Reserve creating unlimited dollars to finance spending by Congress, the dollar is losing value. It makes sense to diversify your portfolio not only into bullion, but also into investment-grade coins which have prices that move independently from the bullion markets and are an excellent store of wealth.
At RPMEX we have gained a reputation for teaching customers details about the rare coin market. Why might the U.S. Mint produce fewer of one coin than another? Which products are likely to have fewer coins graded as PR70? Which metal types tend to produce greater price increases in investment-grade coins? What are the differences between First Strike coins and other investment-grade coins? With the right knowledge, a collector can acquire select coins as they are released into the market and watch them grow in value over the following years. The traders for other coin dealers know how to take an order over the phone, but few traders have the decades of coin knowledge and experience that you will find with RPMEX. By becoming a Preferred Customer with RPMEX you can gain the access to the education that has kept our clients coming back year after year. Call us now to find out more: 1-800-257-3253.
