From 2001 until 2011, Gold & Silver both outperformed the S&P 500 by more than 500% each!
No doubt it paid to own Gold & Silver over the S&P 500 from 2001 to 2011. As we all know at this time, the performance between the three has done the exact opposite over the past 6-years, as it has paid to own the S&P and avoid Gold & Silver.
