Gold!

Yes I took the op to mean he did not want physical gold but rather a gold fund. Thank you.

I would keep it relatively simple, gold sovereigns are one of the most liquid gold investments in the UK and trade at a tiny premium over intrinsic value at the moment. You could buy a little silver too but the issue with silver is VAT makes it more expensive to buy and large 1kg silver bars are expensive to post when you sell them

You replied to a thread that is over two years old, most of the previous posters are not even active anymore.

I also use Wisdom Tree Physical Gold ETC.

I'm very drawn to the permanent portfolio 25% each of shares, cash, gold, bonds. This ETC ticks the gold box for me.

Why Wisdom Tree and not iShares Physical Gold ETC (SGLN) which is cheaper?

And which bonds?  Which shares?
