Gold has remained one of the strongest-performing asset classes over the last half-year. Factors such as geopolitical uncertainties, moderating interest rate expectations, and steady institutional accumulation have supported bullion prices.
This trend has directly translated into solid performance across gold-backed ETFs, offering investors a liquid and transparent route to gold exposure without physical ownership concerns.
