Palladium, Silver, and Platinum each had negative returns of -4.34%, -2.43%, and -2.22%, respectively. • Gold and precious metals equities, as measured by the S&P BMI Gold and Precious Metals Index (non-Sharia compliant), gained 3.16% during the period. • Gold ETFs had net outflows of -0.24mm oz, or about -0.2% of total known gold ETFs. Current Gold & Precious Metals Themes Gold finds support as real yields decline During the month of July, the Precious Metals sector posted gains, with Gold exhibiting resiliency in the face of falling real yields (in line with the correlation we’ve seen over the last 12 months). This trend sustained despite persistent U.S. dollar strength throughout most of the period. Prices were further supported into month-end after the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) left policy unchanged; Fed inaction suggests a continued focus on employment over reigning in inflation, an incremental positive for Gold in the near-term. Meanwhile, late in the month, Platinum and Palladium prices retreated on concerns over global industrial production and manufacturing activity, which investors fear could face headwinds from the spread of the Delta variant. Cyclical recovery offers opportunities outside of Gold. Gold miners expected to continue to generate strong cash flow. For the time being, investors are likely in a holding pattern while they await upcoming inflation data and the potential start of taper talks. The Fed’s plan to remove monetary support will be a negative headwind for Gold prices, as demonstrated by the market’s reaction after the last Fed meeting. In the near-term, Platinum & Palladium (PGMs) demand will be subject to improvements/deteriorations in industrial & manufacturing activity. The full impact of lost mines supply from Russia earlier this year should impact the market in the next several months and could meet improving demand conditions as auto production recovers following a semiconductor shortage. These conditions should be incrementally more positive for PGM miners. We stay positive on diamond miners given the strong fundamental supply-demand balance. July saw further price increases for mined diamonds with one major miner also noting that strong retail jewelry demand conditions were expected to persist during the second half of 2021, lending confidence to the persistence of strong demand conditions. Inventory at miners remains at very depressed levels, as evidenced by a large Russian diamond miner purchasing stones from strategic stocks to help meet customer demand. We are positive on the diamond mining companies as a combination of attractive valuation and the potential for elevated cash returns to shareholders is likely to draw increasing investor interest, particularly as the environment for Gold prices could become difficult if monetary conditions tighten. We expect reporting season to continue to showcase the attractiveness of gold mining equities as investment vehicles with producers generally reporting strong cash flow and elevated margins. Balance sheets across the sector also saw continuing improvement that could enable companies to enhance shareholder returns. We continue to favor companies with the best combination of near-term growth and strong cash flow as we believe these companies represent the lowest risk and will be best positioned to return cash to shareholders. What does the future hold for Gold? Longer-term, Gold could come under pressure as improving macroeconomic conditions make extraordinary monetary policy measures less justified, ultimately resulting in tapering of asset purchases by Central Banks and increases in interest rates. Without a change to the global macroeconomic trajectory trend toward reopening, we expect Gold prices to remain mostly subdued. We do not anticipate a return to previous highs unless inflation or currency condition change materially. Sector Performance and Positioning • During the month of July, the fund gained 4.65% in USD. • The top 3 individual contributors to the fund were Franco-Nevada Corporation, Impala Platinum Holdings Limited, and Kirkland Lake Gold Ltd. • The top 3 detractors were Evolution Mining Limited, Newmont Corporation, and MAG Silver Corp.

  • Heraeus Precious Appraisal I 1 Precious Metals Review
    HERAEUS PRECIOUS Ed. 36 APPRAISAL th 14 October 2019 MARKET SPOTLIGHT Implats aligns its output more closely with future order books Impala Platinum (Implats) is acquiring North American Palladium (NAP) for ~$758 million. Implats will gain an existing mine, Lac des Iles, which is a primary palladium mine. It has very small amounts of platinum, gold and copper by-products. This will provide Implats with immediate low-cost palladium production at a time when palladium prices are very high and are expected to remain high. NAP reported all-in sustaining costs of $875/oz in H1’19, against an average palladium price of $1,411/oz. The acquisition reduces the combined company’s average cost of production. Lac des Iles is situated in Canada so this also provides geographic diversification of production and reduces the company’s exposure to high-cost, deep-level conventional mining. The acquisition does not add any extra palladium production to the market. Impala’s output moves closer to what the market requires. Based on 2018 production, the addition of Lac des Iles’ output to that of Implats increases attributable palladium output by 37% to 887 koz and Implats’ palladium output stays fairly stable going forward. This reduces the ratio of the company’s platinum to palladium production significantly from 1.71:1 to 1.27:1. The ratio of platinum to palladium demand globally (excl. investment) in 2018 was 0.70:1, and palladium demand is expected to grow faster than platinum demand. Implats has the potential to maintain or increase its palladium production. Lac des Iles’ life-of-mine could be extended beyond 2027.
