Show Notes
VanEck Gold Miners (GDX) and iShares Silver Trust (SLV) are two popular precious metals ETFs with similar fees. GDX invests in gold mining stocks, while SLV tracks physical silver prices. Over the past year, SLV outperformed GDX with a 119.9% return, but GDX had a higher return over five years. SLV is more volatile, while GDX is less risky. GDX offers diversification through global gold miners, but SLV provides a cleaner silver play without operational risks. Both have significant assets under management, with GDX offering a small dividend yield. Choose GDX for equity leverage and potential outperformance in gold bull runs, or SLV for straightforward silver exposure with less volatility.
