Top Gold Stocks for Capital Preservation

A list of publicly traded gold mining, gold exploration, physical gold holding, and gold-related stocks and ETFs.
Mon, Feb 16th, 2026

Gold stocks are publicly traded companies involved in the mining and exploration of gold, a precious metal. Investors need to know that all gold stocks are not created equally. Whereas the mining and exploration companies can be more volatile, the physical holding stocks and ETFs can serve as a way for investors to hedge inflation, also known as a capital preservation strategy. Barchart’s Top Gold Stocks list will help traders identify and compare companies involved in the gold industry to find the best investment opportunities.
