Investors Are Dumping Gold At A Historic Pace
Portfolio Pulse from Aaron Bry
Despite growing market uncertainty, investors are selling gold at a historic rate, with Gold's relative strength index hitting a level seen less than 1% of the time since 1971. The SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) has seen a slight increase recently, but is down more than 6% in the last six months. In contrast, the SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF (SPY) is up more than 6% in the same period. Some investors are opting for treasury bonds that offer around 5% yield and are virtually risk-free.
