Bigworld, >> Euro Pacific Gold Fund <<


I'd be interested in hearing more about the Fund. I see it's actively managed by Adrian Day, with involvement by Peter Schiff.

I see they have two share classes available, Class A (EPGFX) with a sales charge, and Class I (EPGIX) (no sales charge?). Yahoo has the expense ratios at 1.25% for EPGIX and 1.50% for EPGFX. These compare to the GDX index ETF, which has an expense ratio of 0.53%.

Looks like it tracks the Gold Miner ETF (GDX) fairly closely, with somewhat less volatility
