Maybe buy platinum, palladium.

What is Palladium? Never heard of it.

My periodic table memory is rusty.

Does Greenland have a lot of Palladium?

If Trump gets Greenland, then maybe your Palladium stocks will soar?

Palladium is part of the precious metals group. I'd buy the metal (allocated, vaulted) plus maybe a portion in an ETF for liquidity reasons. No interest in miners.

Its symbol is Pd, directly above Pt in the periodic table.

I refuse to buy metals at this prices.

But I also hate waking up every day seeing my CAD tanking.

However after the Hitlers latest outburst about military spending i am thinking about 100 shares of Lockheed Martin.

Am I too late? I am currently invested into nothing. What would some smart investors recommend?

I invest in myself for having a great life.My money is in the bank and it will be there.

Take out cash when needed.In my country i have a house in the island where i live and huge land at the coastline where its also a small house and a garage but im there only a day a year to check if everything is ok.Two if the biggest salmon breeders want to buy the coastline property but im not in a hurry to sell it.The latest offer is 8 million euro but i might transfer the property to my kids so they have a safe future.I will never ever invest in Thailand other then barfines and a lady for some days together.

Spend, as the safest ROI, can't keep up with inflation

A friend of mine does own and rent out several properties in Bangkok. The average return is probably around 5% per year. The main problem is long periods looking for new renters. While this is a return on investment I personally would invest that amount in some listed property funds or some dividend stocks to even get a better return on capital. I am aware that this alternative is not for everyone.

Properties is long term investment and solids, and investment in properties for rent only, is a calculated loss in thailand, where you get average 5% return only if lucky

Why not buy a small amount of one or more metals and see how you feel?

Or ask yourself what price you would buy at and wait?

Can we agree that holding long term savings in cash is a bad idea?
