Tap into Commodities
Commodities can play an important role in an investor’s portfolio, helping diversify traditional stock and bond exposures. In particular, certain commodities such as gold have historically been viewed as a store of value during periods of volatility.
In our view, commodity investors should look beyond only physical metals. Uranium, copper, and gold are among a growing number of commodity opportunities where investors can gain exposure through companies involved in mining, refinement, and other related activities. Explore the value chains and investment cases behind these essential elements:
Uranium
Amid volatile oil prices and heightened urgency around climate change, more countries are turning to nuclear power as a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels, driving demand for uranium.
Copper
As an essential input in electric vehicles, renewable energy storage, and other forms of next-generation infrastructure, copper’s unique properties make it central to many of the world’s industrial and technological advancements.
Gold
A potentially valuable hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty, gold may be a compelling long-term store of value and diversification tool in investment portfolios.
Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against a loss. International investments may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles, or from economic or political instability in other nations. Emerging markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors as well as increased volatility and lower trading volume. Narrowly focused investments may be subject to higher volatility. There are additional risks associated with investing in commodities and the commodity mining industry. URA and COPX are non-diversified. GOEX does not hold physical gold.
