Struggling Gold Trust May Still be a Good Buy

Gabelli Global Gold, Natural Resources & Income Trust (AMEX: GGN[1]) –This non-diversified, closed-end management investment company invests in the equity securities of companies principally engaged in the gold and natural resources industries.

GGN has provided a steady dividend return, as well as a way to participate in major metals mining stocks.

I have chosen GGN as the Trade of the Day six times within the past year, and it has rewarded us with consistently good returns.

However, a break below the 200-day moving average[2] in May has not been reversed, and the August rally, too, has failed.

What is going on with GGN?

The dividend is still $1.68 and is paid monthly, and that provides an annualized dividend yield of over 10%.

But the pattern is not good, so only buy GGN on a pullback to just over $15. And if it fails to hold $15, sell it.
