Is it better to invest in Gold/Silver ETFs or in Gold/Silver mining companies?

From what I understand, if a mining company goes out of business or if they struggle then you are screwed. But they say that investing in GLD/SLV ETF shares are safer.

Can anyone confirm this?

Do a little research,, how much as the price of gold /silver gone up this year? in the past 12 months? in the past 3 or 5 years? Then look at your favorite gold/silver mining companies and compare their performance vs the price of the hard asset. As far as owning gold or silver vs owning shares of the companies that mine them,, there is no way to compare that because gold and silver have a real intrinsic value and will when the U.S. dollar has gone the way of all fiat currencies. If you do your research you will find there has never been a fiat currency that has not gone to zero. If the U.S. dollar is worthless,, is the gold/silver mining company worth anything?
(because our currency has not as yet gone to zero does not mean it is not headed that direction today)

Commodities so far this week have not changed much. However, I can point out a few things for us to see on Thursday and Friday.

Metals Precious – GLD Gold Fund – Fund SLV Silver – Stocks PM GDX Fund

Could begin to see a change between the price ratio between gold and overall market. I noted this last week mentioned that the gold and silver are beginning to have value, while stocks to sell in the great days. By ie sell-off Wednesday in actions that do not have much effect on precious metals. This is what we see. It means that money is coming out of stocks and bullion gold and silver as safe haven.

These three cards of the Legal Division, SLV and GDX shows the price action on Wednesday as gold and Silver moved higher, while precious metals stocks sold down with the rest of the market. This is usually an indicator of downward trend for gold and silver, but because I'm beginning to see this happen more often and operators are ready for the market to start any day, I see this as an indicator of uptrend. If the market starts to slide I feel investors will be dumping more money into gold and silver.

Energy – Gas USO Fund – Shares XLE Energy Fund

We are seeing a similar pattern in the energy sector. Oil had today pleasant way, while energy stocks sold. Shares begin to fall from grace. That said, I do believe I have found an oil play, that can be shot higher in the coming days a possible 10 Bagger. I will be providing this information to my service on Thursday or Friday this week.

Natural Gas – Fund UNG

Natural gas is still in a bear market and trade on a major trend line resistance. These goods could go either way, so I will wait for the chance to be more on my side before jumping on board with a long or short trade.

Mid-Week Gold, Silver, Oil and Gas Nat Conclusion:

The market is starting to look and feel top heavy with many indicators and patterns of price action signaling cross. While the market could continue with more rocket to get money back dumped on average investor solid gains due to Q3, we must be careful to strengthen our stops and take some profits off the table. Until we have an oversold condition in the short term market trading'm very conservative.

The wait for a good trade is crucial in the trade. If you ever want trade and force positions when the market is troubled retailing ends with probability.
