Gold and Precious Minerals

The World Precious Minerals Fund (UNWPX) seeks precious mineral companies around the world that are creating wealth by discovering new deposits, developing promising properties and/or mining. Its portfolio includes all tiers of mining companies, including exploration companies.

The Gold Shares Fund (USERX) focuses on mid- and large-capitalization senior gold mining companies with proven reserves and strong earnings.

Why Invest in Gold Stocks?

1. Gold mining companies, with growing reserves, production and cash flow, offer capital appreciation potential.

2. Demand for gold is rising, particularly in emerging economies, while the supply of gold itself is limited.

3. Gold stocks are a proven portfolio diversifier. Since it is not highly correlated with other financial assets, its inclusion in a diversified portfolio can increase the portfolio’s return without materially increasing the portfolio’s risk.

4. Gold stocks can be a safe haven in times of economic and financial instability.

5. Gold stocks can be a hedge against inflation over the long term.
