Dividend-paying gold ETFs are an intriguing hybrid—offering exposure to gold’s defensive qualities while providing steady income streams for investors. Traditionally, gold is seen as a hedge against inflation, currency devaluation, and economic uncertainty, but it lacks the ability to generate cash flow.
