In 2026, surging global bond yields — including here in the U.S. — are acting as significant headwinds to the gold investing thesis. But all things considered, the 3.74% year-to-date loss sported by the largest gold-backed ETF isn't terrible.
Gold produces no dividends, no coupons, and no rent, yet one ETF claims to squeeze nearly 12% in monthly income out of it.
As gold trades more than 20% below its late-January intraday record, many of the macro conditions that fueled its multi-year rally remain in place. For investors who still see a long-term case for the precious metal, however, one drawback remains unchanged: gold itself doesn't generate income.

The NEOS Gold High Income ETF (the “Fund”) is designed to provide investors with opportunities for high monthly income while also allowing for potential capital appreciation. This is achieved through strategic exposure to exchange-traded products (ETPs) that directly track the performance of gold. Investors looking for a reliable income stream, along with the possibility of growth in value, will find this Fund an attractive option in their investment portfolio.
The primary objective of the NEOS Gold High Income ETF is to deliver substantial monthly income to its investors. By focusing on gold ETPs that provide yield, the Fund is able to capitalize on gold's performance while ensuring a regular income flow.
In addition to high income, the Fund also aims for potential appreciation in value through its investments in gold. As gold prices fluctuate, so too can the value of the Fund, providing investors with the opportunity for long-term capital growth.
The Fund invests in a variety of ETPs that offer exposure to different aspects of the gold market. This diversification helps to mitigate risks associated with investing in a single asset, while still allowing investors to benefit from the performance of gold as a commodity.
As a publicly traded fund, the NEOS Gold High Income ETF provides investors with liquidity, allowing them to buy and sell shares on the stock exchange during trading hours. This makes it easy for investors to adjust their positions as needed while participating in the market.
The Fund is managed by experienced professionals who are well-versed in the complexities of gold investment and exchange-traded markets. Their insights and strategies aim to enhance both income generation and capital appreciation for Fund investors.
