About CQS Natural Resources Growth and Income plc
CQS Natural Resources Growth and Income Trust plc (LSE: CYN) is a closed end investment company, providing shareholders with exposure to a broad portfolio of mining and resource-focused equities, aiming to deliver both steady dividend income and capital growth. The fund is run by experienced fund managers - Ian Francis, Keith Watson, and Rob Crayfourd, and seeks to gain optimal exposure to critical commodities (including base, precious, and battery metals, as well as energy and shipping) across a diverse range of geographies, thereby generating strong returns.
The portfolio:
The fund holds a core position in copper which remains a key material in the path to global electrification and the energy transition to net-zero carbon production, therefore displaying encouraging fundamentals for both the short- and long-term. This ties in with the fund's exposure to lithium, nickel and other base metals, which are proving particularly important for advancing battery storage capacity. With the global energy crisis ongoing, we have seen a strong rebound in the oil and gas price supporting our increased weighting. So too, in fiscal uncertainty, as witnessed over the last two years, precious metals like Gold, Silver and Platinum offer protection.
