OK, so it isn't a lot of money. But if you had USD2,000, how would you invest it for, say, 6months or 1year? It's in the category of "money that I probably can afford to lose", so can take a bit more risk than normal. The traditional investment options seem to be behaving so strangely at the moment, but there has got to be a better way than just keeping it under the mattress. Any ideas?

Right, so you have around 15,000 HK to invest? If you can afford to risk it then why not just put it on a horse and see what comes in? Alternatively choose some stocks on the Hang Seng and see how they do. Unless you're a day trader most investment strategies are longer than 6 to 12 months. sounds liek you're not particularly interested in bonds which will give you a return in one year depending on which one you buy and funds are more of a long term investment. You could also look at ETF's

Why don't you monitor the Silver prices.......wait for a dip and invest in Silver coins.
This is real money and a good hedge against inflation. Not to mentioned there are about a dozen other reasons why Silver is considered a good investment. You'll figure it out if you do some research, especially the Gold Silver ratio.

This is true for a long term investment and if you buy in to holding at least 15% of silver/gold in a balanced portfolio but for a 6 to 12 month investment I'm not so sure. I can't believe that aitchkay's 2000 US will be affected that much by inflation in one year.
