IAU Pros and Cons Explained Pros Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in iShares Gold Trust: Gold remains an attractive equity hedge, especially with potential rate cuts forecasted for this year. The Trust's assets consist of physical gold held by a reputable custodian, providing a direct exposure to the precious metal. Investors can gain fractional ownership of gold through shares issued by the Trust, allowing for easy diversification into the commodity. Gold historically acts as a hedge against inflation, making it a potential safeguard for portfolios during uncertain economic times. Given the current market conditions, the price of gold has shown resilience, making it an appealing investment option. Cons Investors should be bearish about investing in iShares Gold Trust for these reasons: Gold prices can be volatile, subjecting investors to potential price fluctuations that may impact the value of their investment. As the Trust is not actively managed, investors do not benefit from active decision-making to optimize returns or navigate market conditions. Investing in commodity contracts brokers, dealers like the Trust involves exposure to specific risks associated with the commodities market, including regulatory changes and supply-demand dynamics. While gold can act as a hedge, its performance may not always align with broader market movements, leading to potential divergence in portfolio performance. Investors should carefully consider their investment horizon and risk tolerance when investing in gold-related assets due to the commodity's unique characteristics and market behavior.
