Abstract
Examining return connectedness between the largest US-based oil and gold ETFs and three major travel & leisure ETFs, we provide substantial value for understanding how investors can diversify sectoral risk. We also compare several portfolio strategies to explore interactive effects. Results indicate a high level of interdependence between gold, oil and the examined ETFs, where the minimum variance portfolio (MVP) is found to be the most efficient. Robustness testing reaffirms the finding that the gold ETF is an important portfolio rebalancing tool to specifically minimise risks associated with travel-related ETFs. Our results have important implications for investors and portfolio managers.
