Silver Occupies Enviable Position Between Precious, Industrial Metals

For investors interested in metals as investment vehicles, the choice between investing in precious metals such as gold and platinum or industrial metals such as aluminum and copper can be a difficult one.

Could ‘Transition Credits’ Make the Switch Away from Coal Economically Viable?

Asia is the largest producer of emissions on the planet, accounting for more than one-half of global emissions and tripling the level of emissions from the United States, currently the world’s second-largest emitter. With China leading as Asia’s top emitter at over one-quarter of global emissions, the continent has been keen on cutting its reliance on coal in favor of cleaner energies.
