Joe Battaglia is away today. His Daily Commentary will resume upon his return.
You should carefully read Goldline's Account and Storage Agreement and our risk disclosure
booklet, Coin Facts for Investors and Collectors to Consider. These provide important
information that you should consider before investing in precious metals. Goldline's spread,
which is the difference between the price we sell our products and the price we buy them back,
generally ranges between 5% to 20% on our most common bullion products and 30% to 35% on all
other products including our popular semi-numismatic coins such as the European francs, proof
coins and graded coins. The market must go up enough to overcome this spread before an actual
profit is achieved. All markets go up and down. Past performance does not guarantee future
results. Coins are a long-term, three- to five-year, preferably five- to ten-year investment. We
believe precious metals are suitable for 5% to 20% of the average portfolio though others may
recommend a different percentage. Please see Goldline's risk disclosure materials for additional
information.
