What do people think of the physically backed Gold iShares which launched in April?:

Given that it is exchange traded, backed by physical gold (and therefore matches price movements almost perfectly) and has only 0.25%p.a fee, it seems the best way forward.
Am I missing something?

gold to 5000 all sounds fair if they do nothing to support dollar value. The miners are too cheap but have the problem of rising energy cost, a couple miners are trying to cover that0 -

The paper ones you mention are all US I think, so when you buy or sell there's also a currency difference......
Never been able to establish which of the gold backed ETF's etc., are allowed in S&S ISA's and the like.
Doubt if there will be any response of IFA's and their groupies, but any info would be welcomed.
As getting close to finishing work, would be keen to find out what could be put in a 'tax free wrapper' to produce an income stream.
Somebody said that Digger Mansions has more than enough physical...'off the radar', already.

There is (or was) a question mark over whether US-based ETFs qualified for ISAs. Don't know whether this has been resolved.Living for tomorrow might mean that you survive the day after.
It is always different this time. The only thing that is the same is the outcome.
Portfolios are like personalities - one that is balanced is usually preferable.
