Featured Insight 11/3/2021 SPROTT MONTHLY REPORT Gold Poised to Climb on Fed’s Inflation Dilemma Paul Wong, CFA, Market Strategist: "Spot gold closed October at $1,783.38, gaining 1.50%. Gold managed to recover from the late September swoon that cleansed positioning and sent the entire precious metals complex into extremely oversold conditions. Gold may have priced in the Fed taper, but the yellow metal has yet to respond to the Fed’s inflation dilemma, which seems anything but transitory."

The amount the Trust's closing price is trading above or below the reported NAV (net asset value), expressed as a percentage of the NAV. When the Trust's closing price is greater than the Trust's NAV, it is trading at a “premium” and the percentage is expressed as a positive number. When the Trust's closing price is less than the Trust's NAV, it is trading at a “discount” and the percentage is expressed as a negative number.

Please note that all bars held within the Trust are London Good Delivery. The bars are segregated within the vault and fully unencumbered. Royal Canadian Mint Confirmation of Physical Bullion Holdings How to Obtain Physical Certificates In the United States, shareholders can contact the Computershare call center at 800.446.2617 or go to computershare.com and access a transfer form by creating an account. In Canada, shareholders can direct their broker to withdraw units from CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. When the broker puts in the withdrawal, the transfer agent in Canada, TSX Trust Company, will issue physical certificates to the broker. How to Hold Units in Your Name Once you have purchased Trust units through a third-party financial professional, the Direct Registration System (DRS) option gives you the ability to transfer the units you own from your broker to the Trust's transfer agents (Computershare for U.S. unitholders and TSX Trust Company for Canadian unitholders). DRS is the electronic or book-entry form of security ownership offered by and only through transfer agents and allows a unitholder to hold Trust units in that holder’s name directly as opposed to electronic security ownership through a broker. The DRS option went into effect on October 5, 2017, for unitholders of each of the Trusts (read press release). Learn more about DRS How to Redeem for Physical Bullion Sprott Physical Bullion Trust unitholders have the right to redeem for physical metals on a monthly basis, subject to meeting the minimum redemption amount. To submit a request for physical redemption, a unitholder must complete the required redemption form for the specific Trust from which they wish to redeem units.
