GLDI: Understanding The Trade-Off

UBS ETRACS Gold Shares Covered Call ETN (GLDI) offers exposure to gold with income via a covered call strategy, tracking the Credit Suisse NASDAQ Gold FLOWS 103 index. GLDI performs best when gold rises moderately and volatility remains, allowing for attractive monthly premiums while capping upside above 3%. Macro analysis suggests a supportive environment for GLDI as long as USD liquidity remains stable and the dollar trends downward, favoring gradual gold appreciation.

GLDI's Real Value Is In The Income, Not The Upside

UBS ETRACS Gold Shares Covered Call ETN offers a covered call strategy on gold, providing income with less correlation to equities, but at the cost of capped upside returns. Yields fluctuate between 6%-15%, and long-term investors face capital erosion as some payouts come from return of capital, not just option premiums. GLDI underperforms gold in strong bull markets due to its upside cap, but cushions downside during corrections, making it suitable for income-focused investors.

GLDI: Let Gold Prices Settle Down A Bit

GLDI offers a compelling 15% yield via a covered call strategy on gold, but principal risk from gold price corrections is significant. As an ETN, GLDI doesn't provide direct gold ownership and its price has lagged both gold and the S&P 500 over time. Total returns with dividend reinvestment are positive, but rising rates and gold volatility have pressured the ETN's price.
