Gold stocks are shares of companies whose primary business is tied to gold — most commonly gold mining and exploration firms, along with royalty/streaming companies and exchange-traded funds focused on gold. Investors buy gold stocks to gain exposure to gold prices and potential company-level upside, but they also carry extra operational, geopolitical, and management risks that can make them more volatile than owning physical gold. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Gold stocks within the last several days.
