    Gold $1800?

    Time for a new gold thread

    Goldman Sees Gold Hitting $1,800 as ‘Haven of Last Resort’

    Goldman Sachs Group Inc. boosted its gold forecast to $1,800 an ounce as the coronavirus, depressed real rates, and increased focus on the U.S. election continue to drive demand for the metal as a haven.

    The bank raised its 12-month projection by $200, and said “in the event that the virus effect spreads to Q2, we could see gold top $1,800/oz already on a 3-month basis.” Spot gold, which is up more than 8% this year, traded at $1,651.70 an ounce on Thursday.

    Gold is trading near a seven-year high, supported by an increasing number of coronavirus cases worldwide that threaten to curtail global economic activity. The metal has outperformed traditional haven currencies including the Japanese yen and Swiss franc as “the haven of last resort,” Goldman analyst Mikhail Sprogis said in a note Wednesday.

    The bank expects prices to climb to $1,700 an ounce in three months, and to $1,750 in six months. It previously forecast $1,600 for both time frames. Goldman also raised its silver forecast.

    12 month projection, huh? Gold could hit $1,800 in the next 3 months if this coronavirus epidemic gets worse.

    Yeah, their last 12 month prediction was $1600 @Bern. So they have updated it. I think they're a bit too conservative but people listen to Goldman Sachs because they're a big name.

    Personally i think the next leg up will be to $1900-2k, the ALL TIME highs from 2012.

    Exciting times.

    I agree with you. I'm just surprised how quickly its happening. Usually the gold market moves slowly but this week has been crazy.

    If Bernie wins then it might go higher and higherr.

    DOW has mysteriously recovered. Now only -500

    I wonder if the PPT (Plunge Protection Team) has been activated.

    Buy of a lifetime in the stock market today. Everything on sale

    Cruise ships RCL, NCLH

    Casino stocks with limited ties to China- PENN

    Guess Jeans tanked because they do a lot of business in Italy GES

    Maybe this time is different like the 1987. But I am buying aggressively.

    LOL. Or it could just be, you know, the market is down 10% in a short period of time. And rational people step into buy. And selling exhausts. (Doesn't mean market can't go lower buy these are the days where all of the opportunity in investing lies.)


    Today is a day to take out the canes imo. http://www.dailyspeculations.com/Letter/cane.htm

    They'll continue to do this as it rises, albeit in a very volatile fashion. Goldman won't come out and say gold $5000 by end of year otherwise everyone would pile in at once. This way, they always get to claim that they were ahead of the curve and being good "advisors", even though they probably know where metals are really heading. It's a karma thing.

    Good luck with that. I sincerely hope it works out for you but I don't think it will. Or at least not in the short to medium term. If people stop going out unnecessarily and air travel becomes further restricted (and it likely will) no one will be getting on ships, going to casinos, spending on overpriced jeans, etc. ymmv

    "We have set them on the hobby-horse of an idea about the absorption of individuality by the symbolic unit of COLLECTIVISM. They have never yet and they never will have the sense to reflect that this hobby-horse is a manifest violation of the most important law of nature, which has established from the very creation of the world one unit unlike another and precisely for the purpose of instituting individuality."- A Quote From Some Old Book

    Stocks are way overvalued though Schiff contends that the miners are a good buying opportunity. I'm not ready to take that trade yet because the stock market is in bearish mode and the miners will be dragged down with it. Timing is everything...

    I wonder how @Brian4Liberty is getting on. I suspect he is beating the wider market. He will just need to hold his nerve.

    My advice would be to buy physical gold and enjoy the ride. That's what i'm doing anyway...

    Today the wider market hit what I had anticipated months ago as being a potential bottom. So I bought some of the wider market today. It may not be the bottom, but there will be a bottom at some point. Catching a falling knife.

    But...I did not anticipate the pandemic when I set that price, so that will probably cause a lower bottom.

    Be careful!: )

    I like mutual funds myself or ETF's. Emerging markets. Lots of upside potential.

    I've had some success before with them but right now i'm sticking to gold and cash.

    Down market means some people have to cover margin calls and sell other assets (like gold).

    Yeah, I use some ETFs as well as individual stocks.

    Always hard to find the bottom, but dollar cost averaging over some period of time can help mitigate buying too early.
