Against the asset it holds
Total return of the fund, distributions included, beside the change in the asset over exactly the same dates. The difference is what holding the wrapper cost or gained against holding the asset. Over a full year it should sit close to minus the expense ratio; anything further away has another cause.

What these figures cannot tell you
We do not publish a premium or discount to net asset value. Our source’s net asset value carries no date of its own, and comparing one day’s price with another day’s value invents a gap that is not there. The issuer publishes both every day.
Returns here are the fund’s, before your broker’s costs, the spread you pay to trade, and any tax. Distributions are counted as reinvested on the day they were paid.
A fund’s asset sits with a custodian named in its prospectus. The figures say nothing about that arrangement; the prospectus does.
A fund that follows its asset closely inherits all of the asset’s risks. The research file for the asset is where those are measured.
