All of Usagi's securities have a long track record of failure.
Go through and read a few of Usagi's posts and you can see that he has a tenuous grasp of finance.
Don't compare Deprived's listings to Usagi's.
No, let's. It will be very educational. A date of June 13th was chosen since it marked the date I published a NAV for the reconstituted BMF.

Usual usagi crap.
Wants to compare his FUND to mainly PMBs and Bonds - not to other funds. WHy not compare to actual FUNDs - as that's what you're running.
LTC-ATF (mine), BTCInvest (TF's) and MININGCO.ETF would be the obvious ones (the last one only invests in Mining stocks so is the most directly comparable).
Cherry-picking a list to compare to rather than picking the most similar competitors is hardly honest - but also hardly surprising. Yes - LTC-ATF and BTCInvest don't just invest in mining - but then 3 of the ones in your list don't mine at all either (LTC-ATF.B1 which is a fixed-value bond, S.DICE and DMS.MINING - which is basically a pool bet designed to return capital to those betting).
