I've heard some sober investors (the type who tell people to just buy vanguard index funds if they aren't an expert I finance) that putting 10% of your portfolio in metals isn't a bad idea if you have a big portfolio. Other than that holding metals is not really an investment strategy. It's nice to have a bit buried in the back yard for societal collapse.
