Rischi principali

Rischio associato agli investimenti in società che operano nel settore dell'estrazione dell'oro e dell'argento: Il Gold Miners Fund sarà sensibile alle variazioni e la sua performance dipenderà in gran parte dalle condizioni generali delle società che operano nel settore dell'estrazione dell'oro e dell'argento.

Rischio associato agli investimenti in società di piccole dimensioni: I titoli delle società di minori dimensioni possono essere più volatili e meno liquidi rispetto ai titoli delle società più grandi. Le società di minori dimensioni, se confrontate con realtà più estese, potrebbero evidenziare un'esperienza inferiore in termini di attività operativa, risorse finanziarie più contenute, minore forza concorrenziale, una linea di prodotti meno diversificata, una maggiore suscettibilità alle pressioni del mercato e un mercato meno sviluppato per i propri titoli. Questo è uno dei fattori da tenere in considerazione quando si valuta la possibilità di investire in un Gold Miners ETF.

Rischio associato agli investimenti in società che operano nel settore dei materiali di base: Le società impegnate nella produzione e distribuzione di materiali di base possono essere influenzate negativamente dai cambiamenti negli eventi mondiali, dalle condizioni politiche ed economiche, dalla conservazione dell'energia, dalle politiche ambientali, dalla volatilità dei prezzi delle materie prime, dalle variazioni dei tassi di cambio, dall'imposizione di controlli sulle importazioni, dalla crescita della concorrenza, dalla diminuzione delle risorse e dalle relazioni lavorative.

Rischio e volatilità di mercato: Il valore degli investimenti e il profitto da essi derivato e quindi il valore e il profitto delle azioni può essere soggetto a oscillazioni e l'investitore potrebbe non recuperare l'importo inizialmente investito. L'esposizione degli ETF è basata sulla performance dei titoli che compongono l'Indice, che a propria volta è soggetta ai movimenti del mercato generale (negativi e positivi). I prezzi dei titoli inclusi in un dato Gold Miners ETF sono soggetti ai rischi associati all'investimento nel mercato azionario, incluse le condizioni economiche generali e i cali di valore improvvisi e imprevedibili.
