Top Gold ETFs With Highest Return in 1 Year: Gold is considered one of the best options as a hedge against inflation. But many people don't want to hold gold in its physical form for fear of losing it. However, they want to benefit from the gold price appreciation over time. Since they don't want it in its physical form, they also want to save on making charges. Gold ETFs provide them both facilities. These ETFs track the price of very high-purity gold. Plus, the investor doesn't need to spend a single penny on making charges. With a demat account, gold ETFs can be bought and sold in a share market. They fall in the passive mutual fund category and come with a low expense ratio. An investor can buy and sell a gold ETF anytime during a trading session.
