The Fund pursues long-term capital growth primarily by investing directly in precious metals and in equity securities of global companies which produce or supply precious metals. Any proposed change to the fundamental investment objectives of the Fund must be approved by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of the Fund’s investors called for that purpose.
The investment approach follows various strategies including: investing in companies expected to increase shareholder value through successful exploration and development; seeking out leading companies that typically have lower costs, lower debt and/or outstanding assets; and reviewing all investment decisions and allowing cash reserves to build up when valuations are unattractive.
