Methodology#
Gold pays no dividends, so weekly returns are simple price changes computed from GLD's weekly (ISO week) closes (in USD). The table shows the most recent 260 weeks and the bar chart the most recent 104. See the year-by-year returns for the annual view. Past performance does not predict future returns; not investment advice.
