Investment Manager's Commentary

as of 29/08/2025

Market Review and Outlook

Year-to-date, the US dollar has fallen by 10% relative to global currencies, as measured by the DXY Index. As it pertains to commodities, fluctuations in the dollar have
impacts on demand globally. Since commodities are largely transacted in dollars but consumed in local currencies, a strong dollar inflates prices for foreign buyers and
suppresses global demand. Conversely, a weaker dollar lowers local currency prices and stimulates non-US demand. Today the dollar is weakest it has been in 3 years.
Given the weakness in certain commodities in USD terms, to non-US buyers the weak dollar further lowers prices. In taking a few key commodities to assess price
changes in dollars versus their respective local currencies, we can see the impact of a weaker dollar on local prices. Crude oil prices serve as a good example. Through
September 5th, WTI crude prices are down 13.7% year-to-date in USD terms, but in Canadian dollar terms the price is down 17.1% year-to-date, which should further
improve demand relative to expectations.

Through the course of the year, the weakening dollar has reduced local prices for commodities in many economies globally. With lower prices, demand should be higher
than otherwise expected, boosting broad-based economic growth on a macro level, as well as commodity-specific demand.

Fund

In the month of August 2025, the Recurrent Global Natural Resources Fund rose +6.59% net of fees. During the month, the portfolio’s gold mining stocks increased
+22.6%. While stock selection in the gold sector was strong, the portfolio’s relative underweight offset some of the strong performance. Additionally, portfolio holding PBF
Energy rose +22.3% during the month, significantly adding to portfolio performance.
