How Gold ETFs Are Beating Bonds in 2026

Episode 50 of ETF Investing with Fexingo explores why gold ETFs are outperforming bonds in 2026. With the S&P 500 holding at 7,431 and small caps surging 3.1% in a week, Lucas and Luna dissect the macro picture: a Fed holding rates at 3.63%, sticky inflation that TIPS ETFs can't fully hedge, and gold's quiet rally. They drill into the case of GLD and IAU, comparing their expense ratios, liquidity, and performance in the current rate environment. The hosts also discuss the role of gold miners ETFs like GDX and how they amplify the metal's moves. If you're wondering whether to add a commodity sleeve to your portfolio, this episode gives you the data to decide.
