Live Events An expert believes that during uncertain periods, gold performs well as investors consider it a safe haven, and the past five years have seen a lot of volatility, starting with the pandemic and then, the geopolitical tensions concerning Russia-Ukraine, Israel-Hamas, and now India and Pakistan across the border have firmly pushed prices upward. 'They would usually be normalised upon the diffusion of those fears and the stabilisation of global sentiment. Prices are now dipping simply owing to this releasing-off effect after a strong rally, which for some time had even outshined long-term equity returns.' commented Rajesh Minocha, a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), Founder of Financial Radiance. According to a report by ET, on Wednesday, gold and silver settled on a weak note in the domestic and international markets. Gold and silver prices were unable to hold their previous sessions gain and plunged again amid easing safe-haven demand due to US-China trade negotiations and major risk aversion in the global financial markets. The U.S. and China trade negotiations changed bullion markets sentiments and traders and investors are unwinding their long positions and booking profits, the report further added. In the last nine months, gold ETFs have offered upto 32.37% return with UTI Gold ETF being the topper, followed by Invesco India Gold ETF which has offered 31.68% return. Nippon India ETF Gold BeES, the largest gold ETF, offered 31.24% return. Edelweiss Gold ETF gave the lowest return of around 31.08% return.

LIC MF Gold ETF gave the lowest return of around 27.94% in the last one year. The expert firmly mentions that the recent dip doesn't mean the rally has necessarily completely ended-the gold remains topical as a long-term hedge and it is one investment that should be in a diversified portfolio rather than a core growth asset. 'One option is the ETFs, but investors can also take the flexible route like multi-asset funds-that adjust allocational emphasis based on market perception. Overall it can constitute about 8 to 10% of the total portfolio,' Minocha added. Gold ETFs are exchange-traded funds that track the price of physical gold. Each unit of a Gold ETF is backed by a specific quantity of gold, usually equivalent to one gram. They are listed on stock exchanges, and you need a demat and trading account to buy and sell them.

Gold vs Equities: What should be your portfolio diversification strategy? Experts weigh in
Gold price today: Gold has remained significantly volatile in 2025, posting over 30 per cent gains since last year. On April 22, Gold prices touched peak of ₹ 1 lakh per 10 grams. Historically, Gold has posted a 15 per cent CAGR return since 2001. Gold return has also beat the Inflation and has outperform inflation more than 2% to 4% from 1995 onwards, say experts. According to Manoj Kumar Arora, Managing Director at Almondz Global, Gold prices are expected to remain elevated with continuous buying from central banks on concerns of geopolitical tensions, tariff threats, inflation concerns in US. 'We believe Tariff-driven recession and stagflation risks are forecasted to continue for gold's structural bull run. We keep our positive stance on Gold with strong central banks' purchases and demand stemming from falling Treasury yields that will push gold prices to continue to be one of the best-performing assets in 2025,' Arora said. Experts believe that Gold has always acted as a safe option in times of economic uncertainty, however, putting all your money into gold and ignoring stocks would not be wise. Yogesh Kansal, Co-founder and Chief Business Officer, Appreciate suggest keeping about 5–15% of your portfolio in gold, a similar amount in short-term bonds, and the rest in a mix of Indian and international stocks. 'This year, stock markets have struggled with rising inflation and renewed trade tensions between the U.S. and China. To invest in gold, Nippon India ETF Gold BeES and SBI Gold ETF are large Gold ETFs that give the benefit of price appreciation without the downsides of physical gold. Also, Kotak and ICICI Prudential offer lower-cost alternatives with expense ratios of 0.55% and 0.5%, respectively. Besides Indian and U.S. stocks, looking at European companies like defense firms, chipmaker ASML, and pharma leader Novo Nordisk can add strength to your investments,' Kansal said.
