What is a Gold Fund?
A Gold and Silver Mutual Fund is a fund that offers investors exposure to precious metals, typically by investing in Gold ETFs and Silver ETFs, or sometimes through mining stocks, providing a portfolio hedge against inflation and market volatility, with units traded on exchanges like stocks but often structured as Fund of Funds (FoFs) that buy other ETFs. These funds track the price of the physical metals, offer liquidity, and allow for easy access without the hassle of storing physical bullion.
