Getting Started Is Easy

The CNI Balanced Portfolio Concept

      With all the hard asset choices now available it is sometimes difficult to decide which one is the best for you. You can buy gold, silver, or platinum bullion coins or bars, semi-numismatic coins or certified PCGS rare coins. To begin with understand that the more you learn about each of these areas the more you will realize that each has a different potential. In other words, while they are all similar in that they react to inflation, their short, medium, and long term price action can be significantly different.

     So what do you do? Actually most people investigate all 5 hard asset areas and build a balanced portfolio based on their needs. That is the cornerstone of diversification investing and one which we highly recommend.

     So it's good investment advice to understand how each of these areas can benefit your investment plan. A plan based on the notion that over time, the dollar will lose value and hard assets will move higher because of this devaluation. After you have developed a plan, the real secret behind such planning is patience. The investor must plan for the long term and consider possible short term profits a windfall. Why? Because history has shown that years, perhaps even decades, may be necessary to make hard asset portfolios profitable. So our investment programs are based on a systematic and long-term approach. We believe the accumulation of gold, silver and platinum bullion in conjunction with high grade PCGS rare coins is simply sound financial planning.

     As you learn these four related areas react differently to world events and have different supply/demand characteristics. The proportion of your portfolio devoted to one area is determined by matching specific objectives to your temperament. If you are a short-term player and want a fast in and out approach you should have a greater percentage of your money in bullion coins and bars. If you're patient and are looking for larger profits based on past price history your selections will include high grade PCGS certified rare coins.
