I've got SWC. With plat at $599 and plal at $804...why not? It sure beats getting a nose-bleed watching Ariba decline.

Ike, The Junk Pile In the fund world, all that glitters is actually pretty lousy. You probably know gold funds have been a loser's game, but you might not grasp exactly how bad things have been. Over the past 10 years, the precious metals funds lost 6.3% each year on average, according to Morningstar. A $10,000 investment in the average gold fund 10 years ago would be worth $4,528 through Oct. 31, according to Morningstar. The same investment in the Vanguard 500 fund, which tracks the S&P 500, would've grown to more than $50,000.
