Is ETPMPD a good ETF?
ETPMPD is the Global X Physical Palladium from Global X. We classify it under Commodities. With about $19 million in assets it is a relatively small fund (worth checking spreads and liquidity before buying).
The management fee of 0.49% is on the higher side. If cost is your priority, GOLD (0.4%) and ETPMPM (0.44%) cover similar ground for less.
Things to watch
- Cheaper alternatives exist: GOLD and ETPMPM.
What ETPMPD's categories mean for you
How each category this ETF belongs to tends to behave across market cycles.
Exposure to physical commodities (gold, silver, oil) or the companies that produce them. A portfolio diversifier and a classic inflation hedge.
- Market regime
- Gold in particular tends to shine during crises, high inflation and falling real interest rates. Commodities generate no yield or earnings and can trend sideways for years.
- In a portfolio
- A tactical or satellite allocation for diversification and inflation protection — not a long-term compounding engine.
