I don't know if ASA Limited responded to my email, but they changed the way they report the premium/discount on their website asaltd.com I disagreed with their calculation method. If the net asset value was $24 and the price was $20, the dollar discount is $4. I maintained that the discount was to NAV, $4/$24 = 16.7% ASA Limited, however, was reporting it as $4/$20 = 20.0% They are now seem to be reporting it correctly, as opposed to overstating the discount.
