Doesn't GLD do the same?

The premium has disappeared so fast that if POG drops some $10 then CEF may well start to trade at a 5% discount. I don't think GLD will trade at a significant discount as it's easy to arbitrage -- create or redeem shares.

IMO CEF's advantage is tax treatment on long term gains as it doesn't have a status of collectables (am I right?).
