The United States Government’s plan to rid banks of lethal assets has precious metals investors speculating that the economy and lending groups may be reviving. The news of this plan ignited the biggest rally in stocks since November of 2008 as the Dow Jones gained nearly 500 points early in the week; however, many of these stocks gave up some of their gains by midweek. Overall, the precious metals outlook continues to be good as investors are still very bullish on commodities. If anything, this recession has clearly demonstrated to the world that possessing physical precious metal in your investment portfolio is a must have!

Numismatics:
We are here at the Whitman Coin & Collectibles Convention in Baltimore, Maryland which runs from March 26th through 28th. Although the weather outside may be cold and rainy, the activity inside the show is outstanding! Those of us from APMEX are aggressively buying precious metals, coins and currency in all areas. After the first full day (Thursday) we can honestly say that many areas of the marketplace are strong.
During a brief lull in the action on the Bourse Floor, Mike was able to snap a quick picture of Nathan and Robyn, both enjoying the turnout at the Baltimore Coin Show (right).
We are aggressively buying all Pre-1933 US Gold Coins, as well as all types of Gold Bullion coin. We have purchased numerous lots of Obsolete Currency, Large Size currency, Early Proof Sets, Morgan Silver Dollars and much more!
