James Turk in This Week in Money February 4th, 2012 : Gold is the Rock Star of Asset classes it has been increasing in value since 2001 , James Turk recommends to hold physical gold and silver bullion , not any kind of paper gold or silver , when you own paper gold or silver you do not own bullion , you own a financial asset that's an intangible asset based on someone's promise which means their capacity an willingness to actually deliver gold and silver in the future at a certain date , so you are exposed to a counter party risk , but when you own physical bullion whether it is gold or silver , you own a tangible asset and that's what you really want to own during a period of financial stress
