Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
With gold on scintillating pace this year, mining equities and the related ETFs are responding in a big way. For example, the VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX B+) is up more than 44% year-to-date, offering better than double the returns of traditional gold funds.
Gold, IAU, has been my bet since December. I don't have the stomach to invest in miners. I believe gold has quite a ways still to run in these turbulent times.
