Gold and Silver Exchange-Traded Funds

You can participate in the day-to-day price movement of precious metals with four exchange-traded funds that own physical gold and silver or precious metal mining stocks. These ETFs let you "own" gold and silver without physically taking possession of the metals. And you can own these ETFs in a pension or retirement account.

Like any ETF you but and sell the gold and silver ETFs through a broker and pay a sales commission. But these ETFs have low annual expenses so the cost of ownership is very low.
