gold is a standard so that is a pro but it is an investment like anything else, it can go up and down, gold will never go out of business and when the dollar gets weaker the gold goes up. but just because the dollar is down doesn't mean the price of gold is not over inflated.

like any investment you need to be comfortable with what you are buying.

getting the hot stock is not necessarily the best thing to invest in, looking at undervalued stocks can make you a healthy profit, especially if you are investing over the long term which is the smartest way to do it
