Smart Investing Daily's Weekly Wrap-up: Could Your Portfolio Benefit From These Ideas?
By Sara Nunnally, Managing Editor, Smart Investing Daily

Today I'm headed to France to meet up with the rest of the editors with Taipan Publishing Group. We're holding our editorial meeting at a chateau about two hours outside of Paris. The chateau belongs to Bill Bonner, the guy who created our newsletter business.

Bill has made some great changes to foster just this kind of meeting, with a new conference center and modern accommodations.

That's kind of where a lot of people are right now in their investment life. They're dusting off bits of their portfolio, making updates, out with the old, in with the new... So that's the feel we wanted to share with you this week in Smart Investing Daily.

Should you be buying real estate right now? Could your portfolio benefit from trading currencies? Are bonds the best place for your money?

Here's what we think...


Don't Buy Government Bonds

Yields on the 10-year Treasury bond have been inching higher. With all the market swings, investors are turning to bonds as a safe haven. But is this really the best place to park your money? We don't think so...

In Monday's Smart Investing Daily, we showed you three other investment strategies that can earn you a better return in half as much time. Read the full article for all the details.

This Strategy Is "Better Than Bonds"

He was called the nation's most prominent bond trader by The New York Times.

So what investment does he think is "better than bonds," right now? Find out here.

Is There Value in Real Estate?

The housing market hasn't yet recovered from when the bubble popped. But some areas are starting to see stability, and even growth. It's certainly not an even recovery, so investors will need to choose their opportunities with care.

Jared offered a Real Estate Litmus Test for readers in Tuesday's Smart Investing Daily. Using a simple formula, you can find out if a real estate investment is right for you.


Trade Currencies on Any Budget

Think the massive market of currency trading is out of your reach? Do you think you need a huge account? Think again. The foreign exchange market has become so popular that exchanges have created products available to people of all budgets.

Wednesday's guest article comes from Michael Sankowski. His report talks about these new products, and walks you through how to trade currencies no matter the size of your account.

Government-Backed "Currency Cartel" could crush your retirement dreams...

Because of their unique composition, Ripple Trades move exponentially higher than their corresponding currency. In some cases, Ripple Trades can jump 50, 100, even 150 times as high as the underlying currency. Get in now and you could be a millionaire by December 2011.

To Buffett, or Not to Buffett...

There are many investors who look to investing guru Warren Buffett. They think if they can just copy his strategies, their portfolio might copy his gains. But his strategy might not be appropriate for you. In a sneak peek inside Jared's new book, Your Options Handbook, he talks about time horizons.

Each investor should have a time horizon that fits their needs. Thursday's Smart Investing Daily talks about how to form a plan with a beginning, middle and end.


What to Do About Platinum

A few years back, I wrote a report about platinum and South Africa. Friday's Smart Investing Daily offers an update to the platinum mining industry with a couple of looks as specific platinum investments. Should you get in a platinum mining company now?

I'll explain what's pressuring platinum markets, and how that will affect key investments in companies over the next few months. Read the full article for more information.
