Good for copper investment?
It makes it easier to scrape your windshield. Wipers are cheap but leaving them vertical shouldn't cause any damage.
the wipers off is good/saves the chipping them out/its good for the wipers not to be frozen to the shield
new players in commodities are the source of money that old pros are going to win. no one, ever, should fool with commodities unless they're a successful trader already in something else. the markets are that dangerous
That is a scam and not an investment. Copper on the world market right now is worth about $3.40 per pound. Offered here is a 1/2 pound bar and is therefore only worth $1.70. They are asking over 6 times its market value.
Copper is still a commodity. A pound of copper will still be a pound of copper but a share of Apple in 1996 is very different from a share of Apple today. Investments are supposed to improve in value. An investment in a company is an investment in a business intended to make a profit, so long as it makes a profit, the investment improves in value so investments in companies are designed to improve in value. An investment in a metal is an investment in storage costs and in a spread, there is no natural reason for an improvement in value other than perhaps some industrial demand for which there's plenty for copper. Essentially metals are not investments, they may have a place in a portfolio to adjust risk but they by themselves are not an investment. Note that although gold's price is high, had you bought gold 30 years ago, you would've made 2.33% per year on it all while the stock market returned 18% to 22% per year, Coca-Cola returned 13.5% per year over those 30 years.
