John Paulson predicts gold to reach $5000

ByVictoria

Central bank gold buying and global trade tensions are likely to push bullion prices to near $5,000 an ounce by 2028, billionaire investor John Paulson said in an interview during which he reinforced his commitment to U.S. mining projects

Already the largest shareholder in Idaho gold and antimony developer Perpetua Resources, Paulson last week bought a 40% stake in NovaGold’s Donlin gold project in Alaska from Barrick.

“It’s a well-informed prediction. I think that’s a reasonable number,” he said.

“As central banks and people look to put their money in a more stable source… I think gold will increase its position in the world,” he added

    Safe-haven gold fell 3% on Monday as risk sentiment crept in following the announcement of a temporary deal between the United States and China to reduce tariffs.

    Spot gold was down 3% at $3,225.28 an ounce, as of 1344 ET (17:44 GMT). Bullion, considered a hedge against economic and geopolitical turmoil, hit a record high of $3,500.05 last month amid increased tariff uncertainty.

    “June gold futures bulls have lost their overall near-term technical advantage. Bulls’ next upside price objective is to produce a close above solid resistance at $3,350. First resistance is seen at $3,250 and then at $3,275,” said Jim Wyckoff, senior analyst at Kitco Metals.

    Spot silver slid 0.9% to $32.4 an ounce, platinum fell 1.9% to $976.06 and palladium dipped 3.4% to $942.69.

    Spot gold was 1.3% down at $2,840.25 an ounce by 10:42 a.m. ET (1542 GMT). Bullion has so far lost 3.2% for the week, its steepest weekly fall since November.

    “I think the main element impacting the gold and silver markets is the profit-taking in week-long liquidation (and) the strong U.S. dollar index,” said Jim Wyckoff, a senior market analyst at Kitco Metals.

    Spot silver fell 0.9% to $30.97, platinum lost 1.1% to $938.50 and palladium slipped 1.5% to $906. All three metals’ prices looked set for monthly declines.

    Futures are up 1.7% at $3,350.60 a troy ounce and on track for weekly gains of nearly 4%.

    “Without a fundamental shift in U.S. fiscal policy, the implications of rising borrowing costs and widening fiscal deficits means the U.S. is on an unstable fiscal policy path, which could lead to heightened market volatility,” says Fawad Razaqzada, analyst at Forex.com.

    Amundi Physical Metals expands gold-backed ETC offerings

    ByVictoria

    The Amundi Physical Gold ETC is designed to track the performance of gold prices, offering an alternative to direct investment in the precious metal. The securities are backed by allocated gold stored in secure vaults, with each ETC security representing a specific entitlement to gold, which diminishes slightly each day to cover operational expenses at an annual rate of 0.12%.

    Investors should note that the ETC securities are not the equivalent of investing in gold directly, as they are financial instruments subject to market fluctuations and other risks inherent to securities trading.
