ETFs in Gold investieren

Rohstoffe
Ein im Handel verwendetes Grundgut, das mit anderen Gütern der gleichen Art austauschbar oder «fungibel» ist. Rohstoffe werden in den meisten Fällen als Vorleistungen für die Produktion anderer Waren oder Dienstleistungen verwendet. Rohöl zum Beispiel ist ein Rohstoff, der zur Herstellung von Kraftstoffen, Heizöl und Schmiermitteln verwendet wird.

Diversifizierung
Eine Strategie, bei der eine breite Mischung von Anlagen und Anlageklassen kombiniert wird, um das Risiko potenziell zu begrenzen, obwohl Diversifizierung keinen Schutz vor Verlusten bei fallenden Märkten bietet.

Vorteile der Diversifizierung
In der modernen Portfoliotheorie ist die Diversifizierung ein Ansatz, der dazu dient, das Gesamtrisiko des Portfolios zu verringern, indem eine Mischung von Vermögenswerten mit geringen Korrelationen zueinander gehalten wird. Der potenzielle Vorteil des Haltens unkorrelierter Anlagen besteht darin, dass einige Anlagen steigen können, während andere fallen.

Liquidität
Die Fähigkeit, eine Anlage auf dem Markt schnell zu kaufen oder zu verkaufen, ohne dass sich dies auf ihren Preis auswirkt. Eine der wichtigsten Determinanten der Liquidität ist das Handelsvolumen.

Risikoadjustierte Rendite
Ein risikobasierter Rentabilitätsmessrahmen zur Analyse der risikoadjustierten Finanzleistung; er soll eine konsistente Sicht auf die Rentabilität über verschiedene Vermögenswerte hinweg ermöglichen.

ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk and will fluctuate in market value. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate in value, so that when shares are sold or redeemed, they may be worth more or less than when they were purchased. Although shares may be bought or sold on an exchange through any brokerage account, shares are not individually redeemable from the fund. Investors may acquire shares and tender them for redemption through the fund in large aggregations known as “creation units.” Please see the fund’s prospectus for more details.

For SPDR® Gold Trust and SPDR® Gold MiniShares® Trust:
Investing involves risk, and you could lose money on an investment in each of SPDR® Gold Shares Trust (“GLD®”) and SPDR® Gold MiniShares® Trust (“GLDM®”), a series of the World Gold Trust (together, the “Funds”).
Commodities and commodity-index linked securities may be affected by changes in overall market movements, changes in interest rates, and other factors such as weather, disease, embargoes, or political and regulatory developments, as well as trading activity of speculators and arbitrageurs in the underlying commodities.
Investing in commodities entails significant risk and is not appropriate for all investors.
Important Information Relating to SPDR® Gold Trust (“GLD®”) and SPDR® Gold MiniShares® Trust (“GLDM®”):
The SPDR Gold Trust (“GLD”) and the World Gold Trust have each filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for GLD and GLDM, respectively. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in the registration statement and other documents each Fund has filed with the SEC for more complete information about each Fund and these offerings. Please see each Fund’s prospectus for a detailed discussion of the risks of investing in each Fund’s shares. The GLD prospectus is available by https://www.ssga.com/etfs/resources/documents/us-fund-docs and the GLDM prospectus is available by https://www.ssga.com/etfs/resources/documents/us-fund-docs. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC website at sec.gov or by visiting spdrgoldshares.com. Alternatively, the Funds or any authorized participant will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling +41 44 245 70 00.
None of the Funds is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). As a result, shareholders of each Fund do not have the protections associated with ownership of shares in an investment company registered under the 1940 Act. GLD and GLDM are not subject to regulation under the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936 (the “CEA”). As a result, shareholders of each of GLD and GLDM do not have the protections afforded by the CEA.
Shares of each Fund trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk and will fluctuate in market value.
The values of GLD shares and GLDM shares relate directly to the value of the gold held by each Fund (less its expenses), respectively. Fluctuations in the price of gold could materially and adversely affect an investment in the shares.
The price received upon the sale of the shares, which trade at market price, may be more or less than the value of the gold represented by them.
None of the Funds generate any income, and as each Fund regularly sells gold to pay for its ongoing expenses, the amount of gold represented by each Fund share will decline over time to that extent.
