The editor-in-chief of Money Week recently commented on the slump in gold - the "death cross".
She wrote "we don't hold it in the expectation of making the huge gains we have banked over the last decade. We hold it as insurance".
You probably know what I'm going to say next, but I can't resist it.
Rare stamps don't give you huge gains - but they are better than just settling for insurance against the worst.
They have regularly outperformed gold over the years - maybe because people can always dig up more gold, but nobody can print more rare stamps.
If you've been mulling over the idea of talking to us, why not now?

All the best,
Keith.
