I'm wondering if GLD is fully backed by gold. I want to know if investing in GLD means I'm actually investing in gold, or if it's just some kind of gold-related financial product that might not be fully backed by physical gold. Is GLD 100% backed by gold?

Owning shares in GLD does not grant investors ownership of actual physical gold.
