| Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?The Portfolio returned -8.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as gold gave back its early gains later in the period. The S&P 500 Index, the Portfolio’s benchmark, gained 10.21%. The S&P GSCI Gold Index earned -7.36% for the period. Strategy The Portfolio is designed to track the daily price movements of gold; thus, most of its performance is linked to gold’s gains or losses. Techniques Gold continued its momentum from a very strong 2025 into early 2026 on trade uncertainty, central bank demand, and the start of the Iranian war in February. However, those gains were reversed as the period ended with concerns over the future direction of Fed policy. Adhering to its stated investment strategy, the Portfolio tracked closely with gold prices primarily by using futures contracts. The Portfolio will continue to execute its investment strategy in an effort to track daily gold prices. |
