Q: Sprott has just launched four 'energy transition' ETFs.

My question is about the Sprott Junior Uranium Miners ETF (Nasdaq: URNJ).

The Sprott website says the ETF will follow the Nasdaq Sprott Junior Uranium Miners™ Index (NSURNJ™).

For an ETF following an index, I find the .80% management fee a bit rich. Any idea why it is so high?

As an aside, the fact the fund is following the index is the only way I can explain the inclusion of a company like Mega (MGA), whose share price has been mostly moribund over the past decade and even now with the rising interest in uranium still barely shows a pulse.

Would welcome your thoughts, especially given your (Peter) earlier history with Sprott.

Many thanks as always,

Marc.

Q: I’ve finally broken even on NVDA. Their Q4 comes out later this month and I’m nervous since it’s up substantially from the dramatic low in October. Any disappointments and it will probably be hit hard.

If you owned NVDA what would you do? Ride out the report and hold on or sell, watch the reaction and reassess?
Thanks
