Costco now selling platinum bars.
Takes up the same space, is cheaper so more will sell, and they can have better margins
Most importantly. The fever for all real things/metals is spreading.
If your mom thought owning a bar of gold was cool… wait until she buys 3 platinum ones for the same price.

This is proof that the country is worried about the dollar and inflation. Is Costco secretly seeding their customers with gold to ensure they can buy future goods?
Two beggars are sitting side by side on the street in Rome...
One has a cross in front of him, the other a Star of David.
Many people go by, but only put money into the hat of the beggar sitting behind the cross.
A priest comes by, stops and watches throngs of people giving money to the beggar sitting behind the cross, but none give to the beggar sitting behind the Star of David.
Finally, the priest goes over to the beggar behind the Star of David and says, "Don't you understand? This is a Catholic country. People aren't going to give you money if you sit there with a Star of David in front of you, especially if you're sitting beside a beggar who has a cross. In fact, they would probably give it to him just out of spite!"
The beggar behind the Star of David listened to the priest, turned to the other beggar with the cross and said, "Moshe, look who's trying to teach the Goldstein Brothers about marketing!"
