Gold's Summer Surge Fueled by the Debasement Trade
The price of gold may have struggled a bit earlier this year, but the metal's spot price has gotten back on track in recent weeks. Key Takeaways: Gold has continued to do well as of late, with Sprott research showing the price of spot gold rose 9.67% over August.
Gold's Midyear Check-In: Debasement & Banks Remain Key
With countries and central banks seeking to buy up metals for the years to come, crafty advisors and investors have been able to capitalize on these purchases with strategic exposure. Of course, this attention has also extended to gold, which has seen its price both rise and fall in the first half of the year.
SGDJ: A Less Compelling Junior Miners ETF
SGDJ, which offers exposure to 30 global junior gold miners, has outperformed diversified miners over the past year, but we have our concerns over this product. SGDJ's smart-beta approach that emphasizes price momentum over 12 months is not well-suited to the characteristics of junior mining stocks. The ETF's narrow portfolio, high turnover, lagged rebalancing effects, and significant non-USD exposure amplify volatility, tracking error, and slippage risks.

Products and Services
- Securities Investment in Junior Gold Companies
- Exposure to U.S., Canada, and Australia Markets
- Non-Diversified Fund Structure
This product focuses on investing in securities of junior gold companies that are deemed to have growth potential. By allocating at least 90% of its net assets to these securities, the fund aims to track the underlying index that reflects the performance of these companies. This encompasses investments in common stocks, as well as ADRs and GDRs, providing investors with a broad spectrum of opportunities within the junior gold mining sector.
The fund specifically targets companies based in the U.S., Canada, and Australia, offering investors exposure to the gold mining sectors in these regions. These areas are chosen due to their stable economic environments and well-established regulatory frameworks for mining operations, which potentially reduce investment risks associated with the geopolitical instability in other gold-producing countries.
Opting for a non-diversified structure, the fund concentrates its investments in the junior gold mining sector without spreading its assets across unrelated industries. This focused approach allows investors to potentially benefit from significant gains in the gold market, albeit at a higher risk due to the lack of diversification across different sectors or asset classes.
