Investment Risks and Important Disclosure
This article discusses a range of potential economic scenarios that could arise if current geopolitical conditions persist or deteriorate. These scenarios, including those expressed in the present or future tense, are illustrative only and should not be viewed as predictive, promissory or guaranteed.
Relative to other sectors, precious metals and natural resources investments have higher headline risk and are more sensitive to changes in economic data, political or regulatory events, and underlying commodity price fluctuations. Risks related to extraction, storage and liquidity should also be considered.
Gold and precious metals are referred to with terms of art like "store of value," "safe haven" and "safe asset." These terms should not be construed to guarantee any form of investment safety. While “safe” assets like gold, Treasuries, money market funds and cash generally do not carry a high risk of loss relative to other asset classes, any asset may lose value, which may involve the complete loss of invested principal.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investments, commentary and statements are unique and may not be reflective of investments and commentary in other strategies managed by any other Sprott entity or affiliate. Opinions expressed in this presentation are those of the presenters and may vary widely from opinions of other Sprott affiliates. Forward-looking language should not be construed as predictive.
