Most definitely — hold gold (and silver) because the degree of currency debasement that will be necessary to bail out the Wall Street idiots, bankers, et al in the next liquidity scare will border on hyper-inflationary levels, which could call the very survival of present digital markets into question.
Buy and hold physical. The premiums to digital could be quite profound.
Even if gold needs to plunge below $1000 in the initial stages of a deflation scare don’t worry — this will be a blip on the charts years out.
Cheers
