Looking for a Hedge? These 2 Gold ETFs Offer Very Different Ways to Invest

The article compares two gold investment ETFs: iShares Gold Trust (IAU), which holds physical bullion with a lower 0.25% expense ratio, and VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX), which invests in mining company stocks with a 0.51% expense ratio. While GDX has delivered higher 5-year returns ($2,868 vs $2,331 on $1,000), it carries significantly higher volatility and risk.

This $40 Gold Mining Stock Could Turn $5,000 Into a Fortune

Barrick Mining trades at $40, down 6% this year despite strong fundamentals. The company recently resolved operational issues in Mali and Tanzania, reported 50% earnings growth in Q2, and maintains a healthy balance sheet with $5.93B in cash versus $4.62B in debt. With a 2.23% dividend yield that has grown 775% over the past decade and exposure to rising copper prices, the stock appears undervalued compared to peers at under 12x forward earnings.

Why Newmont Stock Just Popped

Newmont stock rose 2.8% as gold prices rebounded after the Federal Reserve raised interest rates to 3.75%-4% for the first time in three years. While higher rates typically make gold less attractive as an investment, gold prices recovered from yesterday's sell-off. Newmont stock trades at 15.7x trailing earnings with expected 15% annual earnings growth and a 0.9% dividend yield, making it fairly valued but not a compelling buy.

Newmont Stock Jumps 34.5% in August, and Gold's Rally Could Take It Higher

Newmont Corporation's stock surged 34.5% in August, driven by rising gold prices and a $1.95 billion agreement with Barrick Mining to resolve a Nevada Gold Mines joint venture dispute. The deal allows Newmont to add Barrick assets to the venture and generate operational synergies. Gold's appeal as a safe-haven asset was bolstered by high U.S. debt levels and geopolitical tensions, which may support further gains.

Why Newmont Mining Rallied Today

Why Newmont Stock Collapsed in June, And What to Expect Next

Newmont stock fell 14.9% in June as gold prices crashed into a bear market, declining over 25% from record highs despite inflation and geopolitical tensions. The decline was triggered by rising U.S. Treasury yields outcompeting gold as investors sought safer returns. Adding pressure, Newmont guided for lower production (5.3M ounces vs 5.9M in 2025) and higher costs ($1,680 vs $1,358 per ounce), creating margin compression. However, the company maintains a strong $3.2 billion net cash position and recently doubled its buyback authorization, suggesting management sees the dip as a buying opportunity.
