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.
FYI: The SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) has done a lot of living for a 10-year-old. GLD, which hits the decade mark next week, isn't half the exchange-traded fund it used to be. Assets stand at $27 billion, down from $76.7 billion three years ago, because of muted inflation, a stronger dollar and the continued rally in the stock market. Even so, GLD still accounts for 46 percent of the global gold ETF market and 80 percent of the gold ETF market in the U.S. Regards, Ted http://www.bloomberg.com/news/print/2014-11-14/spdr-gold-trust-is-having-a-bummer-of-a-birthday-.html
