For the first six months of the reporting period, there was a flight to gold as part of an overall flight to higher-quality assets. Higher demand drove the spot price of gold bullion about 24% higher the first half of the period, from $1,586 per ounce to about $1,968 as of August 31. Gold stocks, which historically have performed about two times the rate of gold bullion, appreciated at more than double the 24% increase in gold bullion. The fund share classes advanced about 57% during this six-month time frame. The second half of the one-year period – and primarily during the final few months of the period – featured the regulatory approval and distribution of effective COVID-19 vaccines, the reopening of local, state, national economies around the world, and increased optimism about the future health of the global economy.

Steve Calhoun on why rising inflation could benefit gold stocks:

"My view is that inflation will surprise to the upside at some point within the next 1–2 years, and that will be beneficial for gold investors because gold typically has performed well in inflationary environments. "Higher inflation is likely to drive the 10-year TIPS real (inflation-adjusted) rate lower, especially as the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) continues to keep nominal policy rates at a historically low level, as it has previously stated. Negative real rates historically have been the primary driver of gold and gold- mining stock prices, and they maintain an inverse relationship, meaning when real rates decline, the price of gold moves up, and vice versa. "The Fed has stated its commitment to keeping rates low and near zero until the U.S. economy was firmly back on its feet. The Fed has also expressed a willingness to let inflation run above 2% – at an elevated or 'hotter' rate – for some time, without an expectation of higher policy rates. That represents a shift in the Fed's policy, and I believe it would be very conducive for gold and gold stocks. "We've already started to see prices rising rapidly in pockets of the economy as of period end, such as in the price of real estate, lumber, gasoline, crude oil, and other commodities. Other goods and services, such as air fares and hotels, have also started ticking up as consumers are chomping at the bit to travel. "Many price increases have yet to fully emerge in reported industry data, but I believe they will given the recent pickup in demand. We've also seen a significant recent increase in the M2 money supply data, which represents the cash, checking deposits and other highly liquid assets that are easily convertible to cash in the economy. M2 is a closely watched indicator of money supply and future inflation by the Fed. "I think it's possible the U.S. economy could see 3% to 4% inflation once most Americans are vaccinated and the economy begins humming along. And as inflation increases, I believe the 10-year TIPS real rate will decline further given the Fed's stated policy of keeping nominal rates low, which altogether should influence demand for gold and gold stocks and drive gold prices higher. "Further, the recent fiscal stimulus spending by the

U.S. government could increase the federal government's already breathtaking budget deficit, putting additional pressure on the U.S. dollar. The U.S.'s debt as a percentage of GDP is elevated, and at levels not seen since the wartime buildup in the mid-1940s, when government spending was off the charts in an effort to win WWII, or since the late 1970s, when real rates were low and the economy was weak. "Back then, gold also soared in value, and conditions were similar to what exists today. For these reasons, I believe the backdrop looks favorable for gold for some time."
