英文摘要：
This paper studies the empirical tracking performance of leveraged ETFs on gold, and their price relationships with gold spot and futures. For tracking the gold spot, we find that our optimized portfolios with short-term gold futures are highly effective in replicating prices. The market-traded gold ETF (GLD) also exhibits a similar tracking performance. However, we show that leveraged gold ETFs tend to underperform their corresponding leveraged benchmark. Moreover, the underperformance worsens over a longer holding period. In contrast, we illustrate that a dynamic portfolio of gold futures tracks significantly better than various static portfolios. The dynamic portfolio also consistently outperforms the respective market-traded LETFs for different leverage ratios over multiple years.

中文摘要：
本文研究了黄金杠杆ETF的实证跟踪性能，以及它们与黄金现货和期货的价格关系。为了追踪黄金现货，我们发现我们的短期黄金期货优化投资组合在复制价格方面非常有效。市场交易的黄金ETF（GLD）也表现出类似的跟踪表现。然而，我们发现，杠杆式黄金ETF的表现往往低于相应的杠杆基准。此外，在更长的持有期内，表现不佳的情况会恶化。相比之下，我们说明了黄金期货的动态投资组合比各种静态投资组合的跟踪效果要好得多。在不同的杠杆率下，动态投资组合多年来的表现也始终优于各自的市场交易LETF。
