Q: Good morning,
My grandson is 9 years old and I've set up for him a Non Registered Informal Trust account in which I contribute a few thousand dollars every year.
This Informal Trust non registered account is comprised of a selection of Horizon Corporate Class TRI ETFs that do not distribute any income or dividends that could otherwise be attributed back to the contributor. That being said, this informal trust account also holds one mutual fund (MAW 150) that does make distributions at the end of the year and that I would like to sell and invest the proceeds with another Horizon Corporate Class TRI ETF.
My question is regarding the best time to sell this MAW 150 and more specifically whether there is any advantage in replacing the fund immediately with a Horizon TRI ETF or waiting until the end of the year after Mawer makes its annual distribution (disregard the effect of attribution in your response).
Thank you and I look forward to hearing your thoughts and recommendation.
Francesco

Q: Can you explain in simple English what Sprott has done in pursuing this "at-the-market" program with these firms [Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. ("CF&Co"), Virtu Americas LLC ("Virtu" and together with CF&Co, the "U.S. Agents"?

Is it something which I, as a holder of these Sprott shares, should consider selling my positions and moving to other precious metals funds or to miners?

Thank you
