Gold Income Plays:

April 2025 Dividend Analysis

Editor's Note:

As gold pulls back after hitting a record high of $3,167.57 amid Trump's tariff announcement, our analysis of five dividend-paying gold stocks reveals compelling options with yields ranging from 0.38% to 1.55%.

Our "Gold Income Plays: April 2025 Analysis" examines select gold miners and royalty companies that may serve as safe havens during this period of extreme market volatility. Royal Gold (RGLD) offers a balanced 1.10% yield with impressive 9.30% five-year dividend CAGR, while DRD Gold provides the highest yield at 1.55% but raises sustainability concerns with negative dividend growth. Alamos Gold (AGI) and Sandstorm (SAND) appeal to growth investors, while Triple Flag (TFPM) shows promising momentum with a 1.13% yield despite current profitability challenges.

Amid gold's volatility following the exclusion of precious metals from Trump's tariff policy, our trusted partner has identified an exploration opportunity that could benefit from the current market dynamics.
