    Question

    Sprott Physical Copper Trust Increases ATM Program to $250 Million

    Direct answer

    Sprott Asset Management has significantly expanded its ability to raise capital for its Physical Copper Trust, increasing its ATM program to $250 million. This move allows the trust to issue new units and use the proceeds to purchase physical copper cathode. The expansion of this program is a signal of continued investor appetite for physical commodities as a hedge against inflation and a play on the energy transition, potentially removing significant supply from the spot market.
