Gold–ETFs versus physical gold: Difference matters

Degussa Market Report/Dr. Thorsten Polleit/2-13-2020

photo of Degussa 1000 gram gold bar, Krugerrand and silver Maple leaf“To cut a long story short: In a period of a real crisis, in case of massive market turmoil, the investor would indeed be served best if and when he has direct access to physical gold. Purchasing physical gold is fairly easy, and storage facilities can be obtained at reasonable costs. It may well be that Gold-ETFs meet institutional investors’ preferences and match their regulatory requirements. For all other investors, however, there is no compelling reason why Gold-ETFs should trump holding physical gold.”

USAGOLD note:  Dr. Polleit makes a point similar to the one we have made here on numerous occasions:  Holding gold in the form of an ETF is not the equivalent to holding gold in the forms of coins and bullion.  The first is a safe haven commitment.  The second is a speculative bet on the price. We should mention that USAGOLD offers independent storage of gold and silver and that the costs are comparable to maintenance fees at most ETFs.  At the same time, you can take delivery of your coin or bullion holdings whenever you wish. (Please call for details.)

Money is not supposed to be free.

King World News/Eric King interview/7-26-2016

graphic image of a ornately decorated gold keyUSAGOLD note:  Yes, the date of the interview as posted above is correct.  This interview though has enduring value and speaks directly to the situation in financial markets today. In this interview, Jean-Marie Eveillard offers insightful observations on the European Union and gold.  On the latter, he suspected we were in the first stages of a new bull market and he was correct.  At the time gold was trading in the vicinity of $1320 per ounce and it had risen in the previous six month period from a low at $1050. “Gold,” he said, “represents an attempt to protect one’s self against extreme outcomes.”  We invite you to listen carefully to the voice of reason . . . .
