Why Smart Investors are Turning to the Gold IRA

Gold IRA

By J.P. Dahdah, Founder & CEO of Vantage

With such poor yields available today on your investment dollar, where can you turn to find a decent, or better yet, good return on your hard-earned dollars?

Smart money is turning to Gold IRAs so that investors can control their investments and take advantage of opportunities not available to them through brokerage IRAs. Among the many investment options that Self-Directed IRAs make available are physical gold coins and bullion.

Gold IRA investors take advantage of new found opportunities in precious metals because it is a smart investment for smart investors.

Here’s why:

  • Gold Has Traditionally Been a Hedge Against Inflation. If you are paying attention to the news, you may have noted that every time the Fed talks about fiscal stimulus easing, the stock market reacts negatively.  Why? It’s because they are worried that the Fed will allow interest rates to increase, which may ignite a devastating round of inflation. Gold has for years proven to be a good investment to protect your assets from inflationary pressures. Don’t risk your money in today’s stock market in the face of impending Fed monetary easing.
  • Gold Protects You When Currencies Fall. We are currently experiencing one of the riskiest investment environments in years. If something is not done soon about the national debt, especially when Congress doesn’t seem to care or seems willing to make it worse, the value of the dollar will continue to drop. Gold has historically been the best opportunity available to investors who want to guard against a declining dollar value.
  • Gold is an International Currency. While so many major economic powers are teetering on the edge of the fiscal cliff, gold is the one asset that is recognized universally as an asset that holds its value and gives its investor community true leverage.

Don’t believe the naysayers who predict that gold will no longer represent a sound investment. It has worked for centuries, and it is not about to lose its effectiveness today, particularly in an uncertain global economy.
