UGL: Why $3,500 Is Key For The Gold Trade

  • Gold has outperformed major asset classes, but momentum is slowing and other metals are currently leading in 2025. I rate ProShares Ultra Gold ETF (UGL) a hold, citing risks of leveraged ETFs and gold's technical resistance at $3,500. Periods of high volatility and seasonality make UGL less attractive now; a breakout above $3,500 would improve the outlook.
