Thanks Popeye. I thought about trading the GLD for PAAS also, but decided on SLV because PAAS, since they're an actual company and not an ETF, would probably have less of a return if the Dow continues on its downtrend. GG would have probably been a good one too; wonder if they'll ever increase their dividend?
Of course, with physical silver you also need to have a good place to store it! I don't have a cellar, so it would be a little tougher for me, LOL. Maybe under the stairs... :)
