Which of the two: GLD or the Central Fund of Canada (CEF) do you like better for speculation, and which for a long term-investment?
In short, we prefer CEF to GLD for long-term investment. As far as speculation is concerned – if you want to bet on gold and silver price movements at the same and don't want leverage, then CEF is preferred since it is composed of both gold and silver. However, if you prefer gold and you like leverage, then GLD is preferred – based on its liquidity and availability of options.
You will find additional information on that topic in our Key Insights section under Physical Bullion.
