VanEck Gold Miners UCITS ETF

G2X is consistently paired with a core group of thematic equity ETFs, most notably ASWC for defense, SEC0 for semiconductors, and LEER for energy. These holdings typically occupy between 10 and 35 percent of a portfolio, reflecting a strategy that treats gold miners as a high-beta growth component rather than a defensive hedge. By combining these volatile sector-specific assets with broader market trackers like XDW0 or SXR8, investors aim to capture cyclical upside while maintaining exposure to global equity trends.

The data reveals that EuroFolio users primarily employ G2X as a tactical growth engine within aggressive, high-Sharpe portfolios. The most successful strategies, such as those from user-qmeje8, limit G2X to a 10 to 16 percent weight to balance its high volatility against the steady returns of tech and semiconductor holdings. In contrast, portfolios that increase G2X exposure toward 20 percent, such as those from user-mrlul6, often incorporate higher-risk assets like Bitcoin and uranium, which significantly increases the maximum drawdown and lowers the overall risk-adjusted performance compared to more balanced, diversified approaches.
