What is SPDR Gold Shares?

SPDR Gold Shares (ticker GLD) is the world's largest gold ETF, listed in New York. Every share is backed by physical gold bars held in a London vault, so the amount of gold it holds moves with money flowing in and out.

How do I tell whether SPDR bought or sold today?

Compare its holdings in tonnes with the previous trading day: higher means it bought, lower means it sold. The daily table on this page does that for every day and labels it.

Does SPDR buying mean the gold price will rise?

Not necessarily. Buying reflects institutional demand, which often lines up with the medium-term trend, but the daily price still depends on the dollar, interest rates and economic news. Use it alongside other factors.

When is SPDR data updated?

The fund publishes its holdings after the US close every trading day — Thai morning time. This page checks for new data automatically every two hours.
