Summary

There’s little doubt that 2016 has been a good year for gold given the low, and in some cases, negative interest rate environment, slow global growth and geopolitical uncertainty caused by events such as Brexit. But what’s in store for 2017? Will Trump be gold’s friend or foe?

Join our year-end webcast featuring SSGA’s Chief Investment Strategist Mike Arone and members of our gold team, George Milling-Stanley and Juan Carlos Artigas. We will provide our global market outlook for 2017, discuss contradictory forces emerging in the investment landscape with a new Trump administration, and examine their potential impact on gold.

Important Information Relating to SPDR Gold Shares Trust:

The SPDR Gold Shares Trust (“GLD® ”) has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents GLD has filed with the SEC for more complete information about GLD and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC website at www.sec.gov or by visiting www.spdrgoldshares.com. Alternatively, the Trust or any authorized participant will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling 1-866-320-4053.

GLD is not an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) and is not subject to regulation under the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936 (the “CEA”). As a result, shareholders of the Trust do not have the protections associated with ownership of shares in an investment company registered under the 1940 Act or the protections afforded by the CEA.

GLD shares trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk and will fluctuate in market value. The value of GLD shares relates directly to the value of the gold held by GLD (less its expenses), and fluctuations in the price of gold could materially and adversely affect an investment in the shares. The price received upon the sale of the shares, which trade at market price, may be more or less than the value of the gold represented by them. GLD does not generate any income, and as GLD regularly sells gold to pay for its ongoing expenses, the amount of gold represented by each Share will decline over time. Investing involves risk, and you could lose money on an investment in GLD. Please see the GLD prospectus for a detailed discussion of the risks of investing in GLD shares. The GLD prospectus is available by clicking here.
