You mean Silicon Valley?On the news this morning it was talking about the people affected by the collapse of the US bank not your everyday small saver but companies with tens into 100 plus million in it
I then guess you're happy for banks to act in the way they do?Irrelevance AND purulence from Ellal as always.
European banking shares drop after Credit Suisse takeover
Correct.Guess you don't care about that either?
But the fact that many bondholders were wiped out by the terms of the deal, imposed by the SNB, only added to the tensions."
Yes, but mostly silver at present. I will sell some soon, then wait for the dip and buy some more.
Gold invested in at $800/ounce (at 1.48 dollar rate), still holding on to it.I've sometimes thought of buying some but don't know what is a good or bad price. Do you buy gold and silver? What do you consider would be a good price to sell some of yours? What price did you buy at?
Try and get hold of UK coins such as silver Britannias and old silver coins such as half crowns, 2 shillings etc, pre 1947 they are 50% silver, pre 1920 they are 92.5% silver. Gold sovereigns and gold Britannias as well, all these coins I'm sure are CGT free, the Britannias and sovereigns definitely are. I pick them up at auctions, just remember that you have commission to pay on the purchase price. keep an eye on the price of gold/silver if you are buying or selling, sell it when it goes up, buy when it drops. I'm hoping to offload some today, would have done it a while back but my account lapsed and I didn't have a current photo ID.I've sometimes thought of buying some but don't know what is a good or bad price.

Or bought a villa in Spain when the pound was at it's highest and sold it when the pound was at an all-time low.Imagine if you'd bought a load of Euros before 23/06/2016
