Sprott Physical Gold (PHYS) is widely regarded by experts as a strong investment strategy in the face of ongoing geopolitical conflict and economic uncertainty. Reviewers highlight that gold serves as both a hedge against inflation and a diversified asset in turbulent markets. Despite recent fluctuations in bullion prices, experts encourage re-evaluating gold holdings now, pointing out PHYS's low management expense ratio and significant physical reserves. Recommendations to set stop-loss orders at strategic price points suggest a disciplined approach is necessary, while the company is seen as a critical defensive position. Overall, the consensus supports maintaining or increasing exposure to PHYS in anticipation of rising gold prices driven by increased market demand and systemic risks.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Gold is a real asset that has retained its value best since the time of the Romans.  Inflation is increasingly likely to rage again the longer the conflict in the Persian Gulf persists.  A weakening US dollar could accelerate the move.  The recent pullback in bullion prices makes this a good time to re-enter or add to gold holdings.  PHYS holds the largest reserves of physical bullion at 3.4 million oz with a low holding cost (MER of 0.40%).  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $35, looking to achieve $56 -- upside potential over 18%.  Yield 0%

TOP PICK

Bullion. An insurance policy. A diversification tool. MER is 0.45%.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

An abrupt pullback in gold prices, despite geopolitical escalations, allows an opportunity to add to a physical based gold holding.  We continue to recommend a stop at $47, looking to achieve $64 — upside potential of 18%.  Yield 0%

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate PHYS as a TOP PICK.  In a unprecedented move, as PHYS has achieved its target at $56, we also recommend covering half of the original position.  Global geopolitical uncertainty and concerns of US dollar confidence lead us to continue to hold this important defensive position.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $42) to $47 at this time.

TOP PICK

Continued geopolitical uncertainty and on-going tightness in precious metals markets has us again reiterating PHYS as a TOP PICK.  Global metals analysts believe fundamentals that led to this year's 62% run on price is likely to continue well into 2026.  We continue to recommend a stop at $42, looking to achieve $56 -- upside potential of 18%.  Yield 0%

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We again reiterate this trust holding unencumbered gold bullion as a TOP PICK.  Fears of a challenge to US Federal Reserve leadership by the US Administration could cause gold to spike in the weeks ahead -- some analysts project towards $5000.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $31) to $35, looking to achieve $46 -- upside potential of 18%.  Yield 0%  

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sep 04/24, Up 35%)

We've moved from a disinflationary (hedge with bonds) world to a reinflationary one (hedge with gold). Great hedge, under-owned asset. Not behaving the same as stocks. Thinks we're in the first leg of a 10-year bull market.
