This is a solid investment plan for someone who wants to make very safe investments with above economy growth returns.

Gold BeES, UTI Gold Exchange Traded Fund, Kotak Gold ETF and Reliance Gold ETF top the 3 year returns with 60.3%, 60.2% and 57.5% over 3 years respectively. For huge investment plans, it would make sense to diversify within these funds to make solid returns.

Cheers !

Gold ETF gives a good returns. I found that, when the markets are positive the GOLD ETF's are negative and markets are negative the GOLD ETF's are positive.I was thought the sensex to go down because of the libyan attacks as the global market flow. But, Indian sensex is not following the global market way. Any thoughts why so?
Was actually planning to take some profit from GOLD ETF's and come out. Not sure if my stand is right for time period of 1/2 months. (GOLD BeES)

GOLD ETF's hedge and its not always the case that their fund value goes lower when Gold goes lower. Its always a good strategy to have your portfolio diversified between Gold and Equity.
