Silver and Gold as Top Performers in FY26 

The surge in Silver ETF and Gold ETF in FY26 highlights their importance in diverse portfolios. Silver ETFs, driven by both precious metal status and rising industrial applications, surged by 117.89%.  

Meanwhile, Gold ETFs achieved a respectable 54.80% gain, largely influenced by global central banks increasing their gold reserves. 

Investor Considerations for FY27 

With the exceptional performance of Silver and Gold ETFs, investors may consider reevaluating their portfolios.  

Rebalancing based on long-term asset allocation strategies is advised, with allocations ranging from 5% to 15%.
