I think this needs qualifying.... I'm sure there is verbage in the boilerplate stating their strategy with respect to coverage of shares with Gold. If you're worried about a "rogue trader" leaving the company outside their parameters and 'taking shots' ala Nick Lesson, IMO those worries are best set aside. This company has a simple mission, and it doesn't seem to include big swinging dics taking shots for bonus money.

Yes, and the chance of someone taking your bullion from under your front porch is probably much more worrysome.
