I was reviewing the Gold ETFs and comparing the expense loads
between GLD (0.40%) IAU (.025%) and BAR at (.0.1749%). Seems
to me if you want to buy a pure Gold ETF as a medium-long term
holding that BAR is the way to go. Does anyone know of any
reason why you would not chose BAR over the others ?

And GLD's is likely higher than IAUs I would imagine without
looking... but what does this liquidity really mean ? Lower
Buy-Sell spread ? I mean Gold is Gold right ?

IAU's average volume is 30x that of BAR. More liquidity?
And GLD's is likely higher
