Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bear 2X Shares ETF offers leveraged inverse exposure to gold miners, aiming for -200% daily returns of the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index. The DUST ETF uses swaps and futures contracts instead of owning gold mining stocks, making it suitable for short-term bets against gold miners. High fees and daily resets make DUST risky for long-term holds, but it can be a useful hedge or speculative tool for tactical traders.

NUGT & DUST: Prospecting Precious Metal Miners

Gold prices are up 13% for the year, but different market experts are forecasting varying scenarios for the precious metal moving forward. Nonetheless, whether prices head up or down and regardless of how it effects miners, traders can play the moves with leveraged exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Upside or Downside, There Are Opportunities in Gold Miners

Gold is overbought and may experience a sharp pullback, so investors may be tempted to consider trading the Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bear 2x Shares ETF. However, inverse ETFs like DUST suffer from volatility decay and are difficult to make money from, unless traders have perfect market timing abilities. Instead of DUST, investors should consider reducing their long holdings or buying put spreads as a hedge against a potential gold miners correction.

The S&P 500 was up 3.11% in July, bringing its YTD return to 19.52% as equities continue to rally. This could have spurred an outflow in gold exchange traded funds (ETFs), but prices held steady amid the sell-off.

Outflows From Gold ETFs Didn't Hurt Prices in July

If the capital markets' notions are correct, a June pause could make way for July rate hikes. This could put more downward pressure on gold, which has been waning in recent months.

With companies increasing their payrolls more than expected during the month of January, investors turned the risk-on dial higher, pushing safe haven assets to the side. This, in turn, pushed gold prices down to help bearish traders profit from the pullback.
