Gold shines with unusual brightness


Most people probably never think of buying gold, except in the form of jewellery. Gold for decoration yes, gold as investment no. But with gold now just below all time highs and - we believe - set to head sharply higher, is it time to change the way you think?

Gold has long been a currency hedge and the ultimate store of value during periods of economic or geo-political difficulties. It also a hedge against inflation. Handling the threat of inflation in coming years will be a key to investment success and this strategy is designed to do just that for investors.

The mainstream media constantly seems to warn investors about gold prices immediately after each new high is reached. These are the same media morons who called gold a bubble when it hit $500 oz, $750 oz and $1,000 oz and they have been proven wrong each and every time. They will also call gold a bubble when it hits $1500 oz and then $2,000. Do you detect a pattern?

Gold, of course, is not immune to price corrections - seven major ones in as many years to be exact - but the secular bull market in precious metals rages on. All investments have risk, including gold, but gold has, to date, proven to be the best investment of the 21st century.

Do not be distracted by media hype over gold's periodic corrections or a purported gold bubble. Instead, keep your eyes on the facts and focus on fundamentals. And remember that in real terms, even at today’s c$1200 oz gold is still 40% below the levels seen at the height of its last major run back in 1980.

Due to operational gearing, when gold races ahead, gold stocks rocket. If you are nervous about company specific risk and would like to invest in a basket of 25 carefully chosen gold and silver companies listed in London and on the TSX and ASX we suggest you have a close look at the SF t1ps Smaller Companies Gold Fund.

Investment Objective and Strategy

SF t1ps Smaller Companies Gold Fund, managed by the successful team behind SF t1ps Smaller Companies Growth Fund, aims to exploit the attractive investment opportunities arising from the strong fundamentals of the gold and silver sectors.

The Fund focuses on equity investments in securities of companies which are predominantly involved in the mining, exploration, development and production of gold, silver and other precious metals. The funds are concentrated in equities admitted to or dealt in on the Main Market or the Alternative Investments Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange, PLUS Markets or the Channel Islands Stock Exchange, Australian Securities Exchange or the Toronto Stock Exchange. Stocks are selected on fundamental factors and wider economic considerations including geopolitical risks.

The Fund aims to achieve its investment objective and to deliver capital growth through stock selection and an anticipated increase in the price of gold and other precious metals during the next five years.

We believe that the current upward price trend in the gold sector could continue for a number of years making this the best time to invest in a Gold Fund focusing on this target commodity.
