Is Recent Uncertainty in the Markets a Big Catalyst for Higher Gold Prices Going Forward

Palm Beach, FL – June 8, 2022 – FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – Gold always seems to be projected in the long term irrespective of short-term ups and downs. For example, Gold prices hit an all-time high in 2020 as the coronavirus pandemic wreaked havoc and the resulting uncertainty supported the precious metal but it has fallen and risen since then. Here is what expert analysts see what 2025 will look like. An article in Market Realist discussed where it would be in 2025. It said: “Fed Chair Jerome Powell indicated that the U.S. job market still has some way to go on the recovery path. Therefore, it might be some time before the Fed starts tightening again. Lower interest rates and a dovish monetary policy are usually positive for gold prices.  According to the consensus compiled by S&P Global, the price prediction for gold by 2025 is $1,675.7 per ounce. This is 8 percent lower than the prediction for 2022, which is $1,812.4 per ounce. The improving risk appetite and prospects of stimulus tapering down the line have capped the upgrades of gold going forward. World Bank forecasts that the nominal gold prices should decline by 2025 before they trend higher again through 2030 and 2035. There are a lot of factors that could lead to weaker gold prices four to five years down the line. Most of the bearish analysis leans on factors like the continuing post-pandemic recovery, a stronger U.S. dollar, and a Fed taper. However, there are a lot of factors that could propel gold prices much higher in the next three to five years.   While people are highlighting factors like higher interest rates going forward, they’re ignoring some concomitant factors. The Fed is taking a look at the recent inflation data, which has remained strong. Even going forward, economists are forecasting higher inflation for many years to come.”   Active companies in the markets this week include Osceola Gold Inc. (OTC: OSCI), Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE: GOLD) (TSX: ABX), New Gold Inc. (NYSE: NGD) (TSX: NGD), IAMGOLD Corporation (NYSE: IAG) (TSX: IMG), B2Gold Corp. (NYSE AMERICAN: BTG) (TSX: BTO).

 

Market Realist added: “According to economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal, inflation should see an annual increase of 2.58 percent from 2021 to 2023, which puts inflation at levels last seen in 1993. Higher inflation lowers the real interest rates. Also, higher inflation lowers the value of fiat money. Therefore, people like holding gold in times of higher inflation, which could be a big catalyst for higher gold prices going forward.  Therefore, there are still a lot of uncertainties and factors that will support higher gold prices in the long term. The currency debasement and massive money printing by central banks are still the main concerns that can propel gold to greater heights in the long term and should keep on providing tailwinds to gold come 2025.”

 

Osceola Gold Inc. (OTC: OSCI) BREAKING NEWS:  Osceola Gold Advances into Full Production as Operations Gain Momentum Osceola Gold Inc., a precious metal mining company that focuses on the development and exploration of gold and other precious metal mining projects, is fully open and has advanced into full operational status.
