There are plenty of reasons for you to have some gold stocks in your portfolio.
Governments are stockpiling record amounts of the shiny metal. Mints are pumping out new coins as fast as they can. And the Fed under “Helicopter” Ben Bernanke is wallpapering the world with greenbacks, pumping out $85 billion a month until … well, who knows when?
But there’s more.
The Europeans have joined the party by bailing out their weak sisters with hundreds of billions of euros. And the Bank of Japan just announced a $1.2 trillion bond purchase program for 2013 and $150 billion per month after that — almost twice the size of the Fed’s folly.
