Paper Gold

[hussman]

Are there any gold stocks which track the spot movement? ( I think I rememebr reading about them but cant seem to find specifics)

Are these something a small company can invest in to diversify its portfolio?

I don't know if you mean ETF's or 'stocks' (shares) particularly.

I hold mining shares and have held exchange traded funds which (allegedly) invest only in 'gold'.

Some of the ETF's 'invest' in non-phys 'gold' and some (purportedly) invest in only physical - but in my experience both are open to manipulation.

I don't hold exchange traded funds in pm's any more for that reason.
