Just my thoughts TDA, but if you've sat through the carnage in gold stocks, you'd be better hanging onto them than transferring the dosh into physical I think. Firstly, the reason AUD bullion has held up so well is the rise in USD/ decline in AUD which will probably rectify itself somewhat over coming months or at least stay flat. Secondly gold stock are officially the cheapest they have been in over 2 decades (and while in the middle of a gold bull run). Seems to me that physical was the place to be over the last six months, but I think the opposite will be true for at least the next six months.

Therefore, AUD gold is near an all time high while gold stocks are at their cheapest in decades. I can't see how physical would provide a better return in the coming months

Just my thoughts though
