This summary was created by AI, based on 7 opinions in the last 12 months.

The reviews regarding SPDR Gold ETF (GLD) present a mixed bag of sentiments. Several experts express bearishness, noting a significant recent decline in GLD, with one analyst highlighting an -11% drop in the past month, indicating that the momentum money that once flowed into gold is now receding. Others suggest a tactical approach, seeing potential for a bounce given the RSI levels and the historical 200-day moving average. However, some analysts draw a distinction between investing in gold directly versus gold mining stocks, emphasizing the risks associated with the latter. The views on whether to hold or sell GLD indicate that a defensive strategy might be prudent as uncertainties loom over the gold market.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 15/06. Up 14.5%.)
COMMENT
Physical ownership of bullion. A good way to trade intraday and if you don't want to own physical gold.
BUY
A little more positive on gold longer-term and this would be a good way of playing it. This is a direct play on gold bullion.
TOP PICK
This is a play on the bullion. As the markets have been breaking out into new highs, gold has been doing so also. Technically it looks like it is going to have an ascending triangle break out. Looking for gold to challenge its previous highs of $720.
BUY
This is a direct play on gold and he would combine this with some intermediate gold stocks.
BUY
If you are going into golds, this is his preference.
BUY
A very convenient way to get exposure to the gold price without physically taking possession of the gold. If you have a cash component to your portfolio gold would be a good place to hold it.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 9/05. Up 45%.) Easy money is probably gone. Gold has had a long run. Thinks gold will build a large symmetrical triangle which could span 9 months.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 8/06. Up 11%.) A Pairs Trade, shorting gold Stocks (XGD-T) and going long on Gold (GLD-N) Turned out to be an OK trade.
TOP PICK
If you are looking out three years, and you want a full contingent of gold exposure, this is a defensive wait to play it.
BUY
As the savings in the far east increases, it will go into gold. This is a safer way of playing gold.
SELL
This was one of his past picks. It is now up 8% since his last recommendation. The upward trend is over and it is time to sell.
TOP PICK
DON'T BUY
Not a gold bull. Gold is at a 25-year high which really means that the return on gold over the last 25 years has been 0. At the same time, you could have bought any number of equity and had a tenfold increase. If you focus on the long-term, ownership of good businesses bought at good prices will trounce the long-term return on any gold.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 9/05. Up 15%.) Since it is still going up, there's no reason to get out of it. The ETF's are a safer play than the gold stocks.
