Description: YGLD Simplify Exchange Traded December 24, 2025
YGLD is a U.S.–based, commodity-focused ETF that, each quarter, leverages gold futures to achieve exposure roughly 150 % of its net assets. The fund also writes option spreads (both exchange-traded and OTC) on equity, fixed-income, and currency ETFs to generate income, and it is classified as non-diversified, meaning it may hold a concentrated set of positions.
Key quantitative points to consider (as of the latest public filings): the fund’s expense ratio is 0.75 %, its total assets under management are about $120 million, and the 30-day SEC yield sits near 1.2 %. Gold futures open interest has risen 8 % year-to-date, reflecting heightened demand for leveraged exposure, while real-interest-rate trends (the spread between nominal Treasury yields and inflation) remain a primary driver of gold price dynamics. Additionally, the option-writing component can boost yield but introduces directional risk tied to the performance of the underlying ETFs.
If you want a deeper, data-driven assessment of YGLD’s risk-adjusted return profile, ValueRay’s analytics platform offers a granular breakdown that can help you validate these assumptions.
