July 5 (Reuters) - Holdings data for both the largest gold-backed exchange-traded-fund (ETF), New York's SPDR Gold Trust GLD , and the largest silver-backed ETF, New York's iShares Silver Trust SLV , were not reported on the respective websites. Exchange-traded funds, the most widely recognized type of ETP, back each security issued with physical stocks of a given commodity, creating a product they say is free from counterparty risk.
