I'm trying to learn about investing in stocks and shares. It's a bit overwhelming.

My priority is to get rid of £GBP and put it into something more stable, ideally by investing in companies that will do will through the coming recession.

I'm looking at precious metals as an alternative to just holding my GBP currency and have questions:

What are some websites that show daily, monthly, 6m, 5yr etc graphs for gold, silver, copper, plat and so on? This is easy to find for companies but not so much for metals

What platform should I buy through with £GBP?

Picrel is the portfolio i'm considering for a 2 to 5 year hold with £20,000 in a tax free investment ISA (for non britfags this is just a broker account of max £20000 on which you dont pay tax but with a higher premium on purchase than normal broker accounts)

You fucked up
You panicked and dropped the property when it's the only thing worth buying in the UK
You are not going to make it
But there is hope, free your mind from fomo, embrace logic and calm, wait a month and get an index fund on the FTSE as business reopens

PHYSICAL gold or bitcoin. ignore all other bagholder shills. if shit hits the fan those are the only things that can keep value. hedge against speculation by holding both and go for bitcoin until you can buy actual physical gold.

Please seek the advice of a professional, or someone in the family who "made it".
Honestly this is pretty much the worst time for a complete beginner to start trading.

op here. I know property, I know the rental market - at least in UK. This is NOT a time to invest in residential lettings or property in general.

No faith in bitcoin, I swear this board is trolling to get people to lose money. Bull traps from here on out only

faith doesn't matter retard
what matters is that you can hold on to your bitcoin like gold, and even transfer it safely anywhere with you unlike gold. literally was invented to be a BRRRRRR resistant asset that's more sane than gold.

the only reason there's "no faith" in it in the financial markets is that the vast of the wealth in the world currently held by people who can't even properly use a personal computer.

It can take more a few days or weeks, but when the worst cenario becames real as it have to be all legacy exchanges will shut down and people will have to go to crypto exchanges like Binane. This alon will make Bitcoin rise to no mans land.
