Henrik Zeberg thinks $10,000 may be too conservative of a price target for gold up ahead, with the caveat that we’ll see a lot of pain before we get there, both in commodities and the broad market. Henrik sees a deflationary bust on the horizon that will wipe out most asset categories, before stagflation takes hold, the Fed intervenes, and commodities skyrocket to previously unimaginable levels.
This summary of a post by Hendrik Zeberg has been edited ([ ]) and abridged (…) for the sake of clarity and brevity to provide a faster and easier read.
In his 38 minute video Zeberg predicts that:
-
- The end of a long bull market is ending fueled by excessive money printing by central banks;
- a major market correction is coming, with the S&P 500 potentially reaching 6,000-6,300 before a significant decline;
- the Nikkei index in Japan could see an even steeper decline of 80%;
- a potential deflationary bust followed by a stagflationary environment;
- a resurgence of risk assets after the FED intervenes, followed by another downturn;
- in the long term, gold will play a major role in a potential new reserve currency basket.
In addition, he:
- cautions investors against holding onto gold during the deflationary bust due to a potential price decline;
- recommends a diversified approach with commodities potentially performing well after the initial correction and
- recommends holding cash, bonds, and the US dollar during the deflationary phase.
Conclusion
Zeberg’s forecast of a market crash followed by a commodities super-cycle underscores the need for investors to adopt a cautious and diversified approach. While the potential rewards of a commodity boom are enticing, the risks associated with the impending market downturn cannot be ignored. As the global economy navigates these uncharted waters, careful analysis and strategic decision-making will be crucial for long-term success.
