Precious Metal Investing

As a self employed freelance writer, I am the only one that will be there to invest in my own future. It is with this sobering thought that I have been doing a bit of dabbling in the stock market in recent weeks.

While it is fun to look into the different companies I could buy shares in, one investment I am particularly interested in adding to my portfolio is precious metals.

I was not sure that you could buy gold bullion the same as you can buy stock in a company. I have discovered not only is it possible to invest in precious metals, but there are several different kinds of metals, including platinum and palladium in which I can chose to invest.

Investors that are looking to invest in platinum and palladium should look into the recently launched Securities Physical Platinum Shares (PPLT) and Physical Palladium Shares (PALL), physically backed exchange-traded funds that allow investors to invest in physically backed holdings that are equal to one share equals one tenth of an ounce of metal.
