As Spot Gold Stalls Will Investors Turn To Gold Miners? This ETF Looks Ready To Break Out And Offers 2X Leverage
Portfolio Pulse from Melanie Schaffer
Spot gold's consolidation and potential shift of investor focus towards gold miners could benefit the Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bull 2X Shares (NUGT), a leveraged ETF targeting the gold mining sector. NUGT, which aims to outperform the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index by 200%, includes major holdings like Newmont Corp (NEM), Barrick Gold Corp (GOLD), and Franco-Nevada Corp (FNV). Despite recent sideways trading, NUGT's chart shows a symmetrical triangle pattern, indicating potential for a bullish breakout towards April highs or a bearish drop if support fails.
