Investors who want to own gold and silver stocks may find these precious metals ETFs the best choice. Keep reading to learn more.

Precious metal ETFs have largely centred on gold stocks, and the outlook for that precious metal remains uncertain. Still for aggressive investors who want to hold precious metal ETFs, here are two that offer top-quality global miners and low fees.

NEWMONT CORP., $62.31, remains a buy for long-term growth and as a hedge against inflation. The company (New York symbol NEM; Shares outstanding: 1.1 billion; Market cap: $68.4 billion; TSINetwork Rating: Average; Dividend yield: 1.6%; www.newmont.com) is the world’s largest gold miner, with major mines in North America, South America, Australia, and Africa. In addition to gold, it also produces copper, silver, lead and zinc.


Newmont continues to concentrate on its top-tier mines in North America, South America, Australia, Papua New Guinea and Ghana.



One of those mines is its Merian open pit project in the South American country of Suriname. Newmont owns 75% of this operation, with Suriname’s state-owned oil company holding the remaining 25%.

We believe that virtually all investors should have some gold exposure, and high-quality gold producers are your most practical choice. Gold miners benefit from their rising output and cash flow—no matter what the spot price for gold is or where inflation rates are.


Still, when you invest in gold producers, you will indeed profit from rising gold prices. That’s without bearing the cost to store and insure physical gold investments like gold bars, coins, etc. Note—the best gold mining stocks also pay you dividends, which tend to rise along with gold prices and production.

Physical gold and silver have been stellar performers over the past two decades—including beating the S&P 500—and with gold hitting an all-time high in February 2025.


Here we look at four ETFs that aim to benefit from the long-term positive trends in precious metals (see the supplement on page 40 for more information).

Gold prices are up about 5% since the start of 2022 due to rising inflation and uncertainty caused by the war in Ukraine. We feel the best way to profit from higher gold prices is to buy high-quality producers like Newmont. Most of its mines are in politically stable countries, and its dividend is linked to the price of gold.
