Silver And Gold: Will Miner ETFs Shine Beyond The Holidays?

Silver and gold have delivered extraordinary momentum in 2025, driven by soaring spot prices and supportive monetary signals, including a near-90% implied probability of a December 10 rate cut. While miner ETFs can outperform their underlying metals during strong bull cycles, they also carry amplified downside risk, which is greater now as silver and gold trade near all-time highs. Year-to-date, my five silver and gold ETFs are up an average of 153% and offer an average five-year dividend growth rate of nearly 26%.

SGDJ: Reassessing The Stunning Junior Gold Miners Rally

Sprott Junior Gold Miners ETF maintains a "Hold" rating amid strong momentum but heightened volatility and technical overbought conditions. SGDJ's valuation is attractive with a low P/E ratio and high EPS growth, but near-term correction risk is elevated after a 130% YTD surge. Goldman Sachs is bullish on gold's long-term prospects, while BofA warns of a potential short-term pullback; I lean toward BofA's caution.
