Performance is historical and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Investment returns and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance data for the most recent month-end is available above.
WisdomTree shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Total Returns are calculated using the daily 4:00pm net asset value (NAV). Market price returns reflect the midpoint of the bid/ask spread as of the close of trading on the exchange where Fund shares are listed. Market price returns do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times.

WisdomTree shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Total Returns are calculated using the daily 4:00pm net asset value (NAV). Market price returns reflect the midpoint of the bid/ask spread as of the close of trading on the exchange where Fund shares are listed. Market price returns do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times.
After-Tax Held Returns represent return on Fund shares after taxes on distributions and assumes Fund shares have not been sold. After-Tax Sold Returns represent returns on Fund shares after taxes on distributions and the sale of the Fund shares.
After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on the investor's individual tax rates and may differ from those shown.
In some cases the return after taxes may exceed the return before taxes due to an assumed tax benefit from any losses on a sale of fund shares at the end of the measurement period.
Premium/Discount
i
The above chart presents information about the difference between the daily market price for shares of the Fund and the Fund's net asset value. The market price is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the listing exchange, as of the time that the Fund's NAV is calculated (usually 4:00 p.m. eastern time for most Funds). The vertical axis of the chart shows the premium or discount expressed as a percentage of mid-point.
The horizontal axis indicates the number of trading days in the period covered by the chart. Each bar in the chart shows the number of trading days in which the Fund traded within the premium/discount range indicated. IMPORTANT NOTE: The horizontal bar for ≥ 0.0 up to 0.5 includes the days that the Fund’s market price matched its NAV (that is, there was no premium or discount so the "premium/discount" percentage equaled zero.)

Important Risk Information
There are risks associated with investing, including possible loss of principal. The Fund is actively managed and invests in U.S.-listed gold futures and U.S. equity securities. The Fund’s use of U.S.-listed gold futures contracts will give rise to leverage, magnifying gains and losses and causing the Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. Moreover, the price movements in gold and gold futures contracts may fluctuate quickly and dramatically, and have a historically low correlation with the returns of the stock and bond markets. U.S. equity securities, such as common stocks, are subject to market, economic and business risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate. The Fund’s investment strategy will also require it to redeem shares for cash or to otherwise include cash as part of its redemption proceeds, which may cause the Fund to recognize capital gains. Please read the Fund’s prospectus for specific details regarding the Fund’s risk profile.
- Fund Distribution Yield - Fund Distribution Yield is calculated by annualizing the most recent Fund distribution and dividing by the current Fund NAV. The yield represents a single distribution from the Fund and does not represent the total returns of the Fund.
- SEC 30-day Yield – The yield figure reflects the dividends and interest earned during the period, after the deduction of the fund's expenses. This is also referred to as the "standardized yield"
- Portfolio Dividend Yield - Represents the aggregate weighted yield on the portfolio securities held by a fund on a specified date. The Portfolio Dividend Yield is calculated on a daily basis and "looks through" to the actual holdings of the fund. It creates a snapshot each day of the weighted yield of each portfolio holding based on the 12-month trailing dividend per share divided by its current price. This does not represent any Funds actual distribution. The yield is NOT a current yield since no annualizing factor is used. The Gross Portfolio Dividend Yield reflects the total amount of distributions on each security in the Fund's portfolio. For investments in U.S. securities, the gross yield and the net yield will be identical. In the case of foreign securities however, taxes are withheld by foreign governments. Each country has a different withholding rate. The Net Portfolio Dividend Yield is the Gross Yield less taxes based on a designated tax rate for each security of a foreign country represented in the Fund's portfolio. Investors may be able to receive a credit on their tax returns for taxes withheld by foreign governments - please check with your tax adviser.
- Gross Buyback Yield – Represents the company’s gross share repurchase over the past year to its market capitalization.
- Net Buyback Yield – Represents the amount of a company’s net share repurchase over the past year to its market capitalization.
- Price/Earnings (P/E) Ratio – Share price divided by earnings per share. Lower numbers indicate an ability to access greater amounts of earnings per dollar invested.
- Estimated Price/Earnings Ratio - Share price divided by estimated 12-month earnings per share. Lower numbers indicate an ability to access greater amounts of estimated 12-month earnings per dollar invested.
- Price/Book (P/B) Ratio – Share price divided by book value per share. Lower numbers indicate an ability to access greater amounts of earnings per dollar invested.
- Price/Sales (P/S) Ratio - The ratio for valuing a stock relative to its own past performance, other companies or the market itself.
- Price/Cash Flow (P/CF) Ratio - Share price divided by cash flow per share. Lower numbers indicate an ability to access greater amounts of cash flows per dollar invested.
