The Best Safe Investment Right Now
It is safe to say everyone is uncertain about what they should be investing in. With Americas recession deepening everyday, one can’t help but start looking at investments in other countries. With the unprecedented printing of money by the federal reserve, the demise of the dollar seemed to be right on the horizon. The Euro appeared to be the new currency of safety. But then came the collapse of Greece and talk that Europe would step in to bail them out. Now the Euro looks shaky and has given the dollar some extended life.
So in the search for the best safe investment right now, we have to look at who isn’t in trouble. Of course there is only one country who is thriving and the is China. It is hard to consider China a safe investing climate because of the shady business practices they have been known for in the past. China is a communist country. When an entrepreneur invests in the tooling and import channels with the Chinese, they do not have any recourse when the operation just closes up or stops taking the phone calls. They keep the tooling, and probably keep using it. The poor entrepreneur gets nothing. However, as a common stock market investor, you can buy stock in Chinese companies. These stocks were very hot 3 years ago and are getting hot again as world economies deflate. A 50% return over the next 12 months on some of the better stocks should not be out of reach.
The other wealth vehicle that may be the safest investment with highest return potential is options on silver stocks. The thing about paper money is that when you print too much of it, it becomes less like money and more like paper. Governments never reign in the money supply, but ultimately, like pre WWII Germany, the paper makes good fire to keep warm when the oil is no longer allowed to be used. Thus reducing the money supply. However, silver will always be real money and it will always be needed for electronics manufacturing.
So the best safe investment options might be in China, or it might be in a metal. One thing is for sure, it isn’t in paper.
