NO ONE knows the future.

Since OP seems to have a decent ("enough" ?) amount of BTC and even gold (or at least close to enough), then it makes very good sense to look at some diversification.

PM diversification is not a bad idea either. Have gold? Then buy some silver or platinum.

(Note: I practice what I preach)

Oil and/or stocks would seem to count as diversification (of course I do not know spazzdla's exact situation).

It is SMART to retain some 3 - 6 months worth of FIAT$ (much of it outside the bank in "long green" in your physical possession) if possible. Never know what will happen, and people and stores would take CA$H in a pinch if the ATMs and credit card systems go down, at least for a while.

Gold & Bitcoin would be my no.1 choice if I was buying, also Land, where I am the cost of land gets almost doubled in an year or 2. But it really depends on what budget you have.

Silver bullion and BTC would be best investment for the next decade.

# Oil, why Oil ? The price of oil has been trending down lately, some call this price manipulation, and it really is.

# Gold, why gold ? Unlike paper currency, coins or other assets, gold has maintained its value throughout the ages.
People see gold as a way to pass on and preserve their wealth from one generation to the next.

*gold has maintained its value throughout the ages. *

Hum.. because of that.

If you have been buying PMs and crypto, then you are in pretty good shape! If you feel that you have "enough", then yes, it's OK to look at some alternatives. Some ideas:

Oil & Gas LP and an ETF:

-- Tallgrass Energy Partners (TEP). Mostly Nat Gas, they process some of it (for NGLs) and they are in a stable part of the USA (Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming and Kansas). Nice yield.

-- Alerian ETF of oil & gas (AMJ) . Also has a good yield. AMJ holds a number of oil & gas LPs. (I own some AMJ)

Stocks:

I would only buy something that you do NOT already have, for diversification. IMO, the stock market is risky (priced very high) now, so I wold only buy shares of companies that are strong with little debt.

Im in gold and BTC prettt decently. Alas almost 80% of my wealth is just sitting as Fiat in a savings account.... Could be useful during deflation alas I am 100% positive my gov will empty my entire account "for the greater good". Been considering just holding a couple k cash on the side but.. I dunno that is just burning money.

I have been very nervious about the stock market as it seems insanely high.

I feel gas is low right now hence wanting to get into it. I will take a gander of these ETF's.

I've been considering gaslog a LGN shipping company. They seem to have bottomed out currently.

I think Bitcoin is your best choice at the moment.

my personal opinion in this order: Bitcoin, oil, and gold. If you feel like really gambling, penny stocks.

OIL is a very good choice, since price is very low,
We can expect big rise in next few weeks

Why do you think oil is a very good investment? Because it is not. It's an ok option if you know how to ride waves. Price right now looks like it is due for another dip.

Like Amph stated, Bitcoin is the best option. Just buy and hold. Simple and easy.

Still holding Tesla, Apple and Coke as basics. If you wanna get on Tesla I would wait till it drops to about 230.

bitcoin even more than before, now that it dropped a little more, it's the perfect time to reload your stash, don't fool yourself into thinking that it can go much lower than current price, there is no sub 200

personally i would not invest in anything else right now

Loose lips sink sigs!

There are some great energy stocks that pay pretty good regular dividends.

What I've been really excited by recently is Motif Investing (https://www.motifinvesting.com/). You can create a group of stocks (20 or fewer) and then invest in that group like you'd invest in a mutual fund. Use any theme you want to create your group or use the pre-existing groups or "motifs" provided. You can also search 100s of motifs by recent gains, topic, and other valuable information filters. The cost per trade is low and this really gets you great exposure to whatever business trend you see taking off, without the risk of investing in one company at a time.

I think Oil is best choice too at the moment as current prices of oil are low and situation in oil producing countries is horrible.Sooner we will see huge rise at price and that can bring huge profit.Gold and Bitcoin also are looking great to invest in those assets.

Gold doesn't look bad to me, it all depends how the Greece thing will resolve and what FED will decide for interest rates I guess... it will be a pretty volatile summer anyway
