Episode notes

Ghatam: I think precious metals like gold and silver will do very well over the next five years. If you can find ancillary place related to gold and silver in the US stock markets, that is a good place to look at. It's all about earnings. We may have fads and trends but ultimately it was companies which had very solid earnings. The market itself will guide you in the right direction. You just have to be humble and listen to it.
