Are gold funds a good investment?

When you invest in a gold fund, you are investing in a ‘gold mutual fund’ that is generally a collection of stocks from companies involved in the mining of gold and other precious metals. These mutual funds are quite a bit different than owning physical gold and their value may or may not reflect the current value of gold on the market. Physical gold is generally seen as a safer investment, while gold funds are riskier but may offer greater returns.
