Gold

Our chart work suggests that gold could possibly spike up to as high as $20,000 per ounce, or even a bit higher.

This article looks at the severity, duration, and recoveries of physical gold and silver in three periods that seem to most resemble what’s happening today: the Great Recession, the 1970s, and the Great Depression to see what we can learn.

We could be close to major financial/monetary crisis and it is most likely that it could happen during a major stock market crash and recession.

Here's an updated analysis of physical gold, silver, platinum and copper regarding their respective versatility of use, durability, fungibility, store of value, liquidity and aesthetics.

If you have not grasped the reality of what is likely to unfold over the next 6 to 12+ months in the global markets and that precious metals are the setup of the decade, then pay attention to the fact that gold and silver are poised for moves ranging from 40% to 240% over the next 12+ months depending on the scale and scope of this move...

The future price of gold is very much dependent upon the reactions of governments and central banks regarding the current deflationary forces. $3,000 - $5,000 per ounce is quite possible at some time in 2020 – 2022, if not sooner.

What we are seeing now is, in my view, a suckers’ rally in stocks that will end in a devastating and a massive shock for dip buyers and perma-bulls alike.

Many investors predict the near-term future price of gold based on a number of assumptions discussed below and this article either substantiates or refutes those assumptions, as follows:

Since the pressure of deflation results in a much stronger dollar, expectations for higher gold prices are illogical and ill-advised.

Why do recessions, and extreme turmoil, often lead to a massive spike in the gold/silver ratio or, asked differently, why does gold often go up, and silver stays flat (or falls) during such occasions?
