I can not say what you should do.
I like to hold enough gold & silver on hand to "buy my way across the border".
There are many good funds, George Soros is thought, by many, to be on the list of the smartest gold/ currency types. There are some sites & books that would let one follow his lead. I understand he has been handed his head, though. No one wins the all.
I can't(and would not guess) as who is the smartest or runs the best fund. I don't own a fund. I have heard a great many very good things about a great many. I just don't like the costs.
I prefer to use a real broker and sometimes even hold my own shares.
I pick my own companies (some from the XAU - some not). Gold companies are so cheap now, one can take their pick of the best for only cents on the dollar to what I believe they will be worth. Many have rather good % returns vs the rest of the market.
A great many very good companies can be bought direct from the company thus beating out the brokerage from their fee.
Do your legwork, If you need a list of possible names, one could look at the list held by any of the regular posters.
There you could get the best & worst names from around the world.
