Five reasons to buy silver instead of gold |
Risks in the purchase of silver are minimal
According to experts, when buying silver, market participants almost do not risk. Silver, like gold, refers to the safe-haven assets, but the price for it is more stable than for the yellow metal.
Silver is a practical purchase
Experts consider that buying silver bars is a more practical and measured step than buying gold. They emphasize that gray-white metal is suitable for small purchases. If such an acquisition is planned, then it is best to invest in silver.
Silver outperforms gold in bull markets
Experts consider the market of silver to be very limited. Investments in it are much smaller in volume than in the market of the yellow metal. However, this gives investors an advantage when moving money and managing financial flows.
Growth in world demand for silver
Analysts record an increase in global demand for this metal. It is constantly growing, especially in Asian countries, such as India and China. Experts pay attention to the record level of sales, which is noted in many large state mints.
Silver is an advantageous and significant safe-haven asset
Experts consider silver to be a safe-haven asset, which will save the invested funds in case of a crisis in the world financial market. This metal is great for long-term investments. Experts emphasize: "There is a limited amount of investments that can be held in the hand. These include gold and silver. This is one of the few investments that are stored not only in banks but also in homes." Silver is recognized as a weighty metal, which, like gold, can be felt physically, and is also protected from cyber thefts.

Five reasons for further growth of Ethereum |
High availability of ETH tokens
Most users can purchase ETH tokens. Unlike bitcoin, they are more affordable. However, the task would be simplified considerably if Ethereum was available for purchase in ordinary stores. This is an interesting idea which is difficult to implement. The developers of Ethereum are working towards that end. In this case, this digital asset will become an international currency and serve as a multipurpose payment method. It should be reminded that digital currencies were created as a bridge between traditional money and virtual means of payment.

Top 5 prospective altcoins of 2018 |
The state of the currency market is still fragile: fall in prices is followed by growth and vice versa. Among a lot of digital assets, experts highlight five altcoins, which, in their opinion, can bring profit to their owners in the near future
At present, when the digital currency market experiences significant price fluctuations, it's easy to get lost and make a mistake. Experts advise traders not to panic and monitor the dynamics of prices. They draw attention to five altcoins which have good growth prospects.
Bitcoin Diamond (BCD)
Experts consider this project to be one of the most outstanding in the cryptocurrency market. This fork of the original bitcoin protocol has gained popularity among users for a short time. At the beginning of the project's launch, the BCD token cost $1.04, and a month after the market entry, it cost a spectacular amount of $76.45. According to experts, if BCD returns to the maximum price, investments in this digital asset will bring at least 5,000% of profit.
WАХ (WAX)
This project is considered to be a decentralized platform that allows any user to open a virtual trading platform with ready infrastructure and a payment processing system. According to the developers, WAX has a good data protection system. At the beginning of the project, the WAX token was valued at $0.074, and five months later, it cost $2.86. Experts say that if this indicator is reached, the yield of this virtual currency may be approximately 3,000%.
NXT (NXT)
Analysts consider this project to be very promising. With its help, users can create their own trading platforms, applications, and tokens. The NXT platform also has numerous important functions, including an option of decentralized exchange of tokens and a possibility of an online review of the digital assets market. Experts believe that NXT is one of the most profitable altcoins. Its price started from $0.068, and after a while, it climbed to $2.16. To date, this token is valued at $0.074, but given its maximum, the yield of NXT may be almost 3,000%.
Nano (XRB)
The Nano cryptocurrency project (formerly RaiBlocks) is a system of instant digital payments without any commissions. According to experts, it is currently experiencing difficult times. During this year, the XRB tokens repeatedly had to overcome the "bearish" trend, which began in May 2018. At the beginning of the project, the XRB coins were valued at $1.12, and in January of 2018, when there were investment flows in the market, the value of Nano climbed to $37.62. Analysts believe that returning to its high, the currency is able to bring investors almost 3,000% of profits.
Dentacoin (DCN)
Experts consider that this blockchain project, created on the Ethereum platform, is able to revolutionise the dental industry. The system is used to store medical reviews and current ratings. Whithin the project, users can be provided with the remuneration. At the moment, the value of the DCN token is $ 0.000352. If the price rises to the level of $0.0082, which was recorded earlier, the profit from DCN may be over 2,000%. Now, with a gradual recovery of the digital currency market, according to experts, investments in it can generate revenue.

Seven reasons for growth in consumer lending |
In the Russian consumer lending sector, experts record another explosive growth. Experts attribute this to the state of the economy and the difficult material situation of the majority of the population
This month, despite stagnation in the Russian economy, experts has recorded a robust growth in consumer lending. They tried to figure out the reasons for this phenomenon. Experts have identified a number of items that contribute to the boom of Russian
consumer lending.
Excess liquidity of banks
According to the central bank of Russia, for the seven months of 2018, retail lending has grown by 13%, compared to a 4.5% growth in corporate lending. By the end of the year, lending to individuals in the Russian Federation is expected to increase by 20%, while corporate lending is expected to grow only by 6-7%. According to the regulator, experts estimate the amount of "excess" money in the banking system at trillions of rubles. In this situation, lending is the most profitable and appropriate way out for banks. Excess liquidity is primarily directed to provide money to individuals.
Material welfare of individuals in comparison with legal entities
Banks consider the financial position of households to be more stable than that of most organizations. With a low unemployment rate, a moderate growth in wages is observed among individuals. Many expect further increase in wages, which contributes to the willingness to borrow. Confidence in the financial stability and banks' incentive programs, such as mortgage lending, increase the attractiveness of borrowed money.
Growth in individual consumption level
Experts note that this year, consumer activity of households has sharply increased compared to corporate one. In the first half of 2018, the volumes of consumption of goods and services in Russia increased by 2.6% to 14.5 trillion rubles. Analysts attribute this to improved consumer sentiment and everyday product output, which are financed mainly through loans.
Solving current problems through loans
Many customers require money for current needs, and they can not solve their problems without borrowing loans. For the corporate sector, there are different ways of financing: bonded loans, income from investment, etc. The consumers have much less alternatives, especially against the background of lower deposit rates. As a result, they have to borrow. Many are attracted by the fact that consumer loan can be obtained at low rates.
It is more convenient for banks to work with individuals
Loans for individuals are considered by banks to be more suitable in terms of compliance with regulatory acts of the central bank. In order to make a decision on lending to a financial institution, it is necessary to confirm the client's solvency. For individuals, it can be confirmed by an income certificate, and for legal entities, it requires longer inspections. In addition to data on incomes of individuals, it is enough for a bank to enter a number of parameters into its evaluation system such as marital status, education, existence of the property, and others. The system will automatically provide a pass or fail decision.
Dominance of major banking players in the retail market
The lion's share of the retail banking market in Russia is controlled by Sberbank, VTB, Alfa-Bank, and other leading organizations. This is due to the large volume of their own capital, which is sufficient to cover any risks. Smaller financial institutions are not able to create large financial reserves and have to work with low risk borrowers. Expert note that this is really not necessary for major banks.
Increased requirements for borrowers
The list of requirements for obtaining a consumer loan is constantly being refined and improved. According to experts, some of them have been greatly simplified. In particular, the set of documents was reduced and the requirements concerning minimum years of experience were eased. Experts consider a credit application through special services and positive credit history to be a good way to obtain a loan, and expect a growth in consumer credit in the future.

Six professions to be robotized |
Call center operator
Delivery man
Currently, the function of delivery men is partly performed by drones. However, due to their small size, they can move only small packages. Disadvantages of drones include the fact that a drone can easily be disoriented and got down. However, experts are sure that with the arrival of mobile ground-based robots, these problems will be solved.
Military man
For a long time there have been quite active innovative developments in the military sphere. The use of robots in combat operations is a long-standing idea, towards which all states have been working to the best of their abilities. Experts believe that by 2025 the number of combat robots in the US Army will exceed the number of soldiers. Such a forecast may be relevant for other countries.
