126 Analysts Believe Gold Will Go To At Least $2,500

126 analysts have now written articles in which they put forth their projections for the eventual peak price of gold complete with their rationale for such occurring. Of those 126 prognosticators 86 maintain that gold will go as high as $5,000 per ozt.. Take a look at who is projecting what, by when, and why and seriously consider getting in on the action if you have not already done so. It certainly does not appear to be too late. Not by a long shot! Words: 922

Editor’s Note: If you find a name or two missing from the list below I would appreciate you sending me his/her name and the URL of the article in the comment section below so I can have the most comprehensive list available on the internet. To be included in the list only projections of gold achieving a parabolic top of at least $2,500 per troy ounce (for an excellent article on gold karats and troy ounces go here.), accompanied by sound reasons, will be included in the revised list. For some insights into what the implications of such high gold prices would have on the price of silver go here for an excellent article on the historical gold:silver ratio. How much gold should you buy? Read this article for some guidance in that regard.

Conclusion

There you have it. Who would have believed that 126 distinguished analysts would maintain that gold and by implication, silver,  are likely to achieve such lofty levels as a result of the effects of our current financially troubled and volatile times? Their rationale is varied but each is sound in its own right.

If we are to put any credence whatsoever into the rationale presented by the above analysts then it seems prudent to own some physical gold and silver to shield ourselves from future rampant inflation and currency devaluations and to ensure an outstanding return on our investment.
