GLD and gold in general have surged higher in recent weeks. But gold is cyclical.

I prefer to express my gold position through options alone, or via an option collar. I provide timely insight on those here.

The "golden collar" involves buying puts and selling covered calls on GLD to set profit and loss boundaries after the recent rally.

This is as good a time as I've seen for investors to learn how to use options responsibly and with confidence, given these unique market conditions.

US–Iran Tensions Escalating! Gold, Silver New Highs Next Week?
Israel launched a preemptive strike on Iran under “Operation Roaring Lion,” with officials signaling an initial four-day intensive campaign. The U.S. military is also reportedly preparing for multi-day operations. President Trump confirmed U.S. strikes have begun, targeting Iran’s missile industry and naval capabilities to prevent nuclear escalation.

    I don’t think gold will hit $6000. It’s quite volatile where the gold market is concerned. My friends and I were talking about gold price surge and 1 friend said it’s a good time to sell gold but not to buy. That gave me an idea to sell a necklace I bought for $700/- few years back so I took it to Maxi Cash to see how much they could offer me if I sold to them. They said the offer is $2900/-. Maybe I should sell it and buy more shares as I hardly wear gold jeeelleries. Still thinking……
