Credit Suisse: Gold May Retest Record High of $1,921
28, June
“Bigger picture though, given the magnitude of the base, which has taken six years to form, we suspect we could even see a retest of the $1,921 record high,” according to David Sneddon, global head of technical analysis at Credit Suisse.
Gold has established a multiyear base that could provide the platform for a “significant and long- lasting rally” for gold, he said. We concur with this view and indeed are more bullish as we see gold going to well over $3,000/oz in the long term
Gold traders will be reluctant to go short today due to the scale of risks ahead of the likely Trump and Xi talks. Indeed some may move to cover their short positions as if there is no progress in ending the year-long trade dispute or indeed tensions escalate, gold will likely go higher.
Gold’s mood music has changed radically in the last month and banks, hedge funds and other institutions internationally have become much more bullish on gold. They are revising upwards their price forecasts for gold in 2019 and the coming years.
Credit Suisse and Morgan Stanley are two such institution and they see gold having strong gains in the second half of 2019.
Credit Suisse analysts, like us, see gold returning to it’s record nominal high of $1,921/oz.
