The internet is awash with analysts who believe that gold is going to $7,250+
and as low as $725 and that silver is going down to $12 or higher than $120. Such pundits (Roubini, Sinclair, Rickards, Willie and Edelson to name a few) grab a lot of attention in the media but are their prognostications worth paying attention to or are they just a lot of hot air?
Below is a list of forecasts of the future movement in the price of physical gold with an update as to how close their predictions have come to reality – to date.

1. Only These 42 Analysts Dare Predict When – and At What Price – Gold Will Peak

2. The Future Price of Gold and the 2% Factor
It is my contention that the price of gold rallies whenever the U.S. dollar’s real short-term interest rate is below 2%, falls whenever the real short rate is above 2%, and holds steady at the equilibrium rate of 2%. Furthermore, for every one percentage point real rates differ from 2%, gold moves by eight times that amount per year. So if the real rates are at 1%, gold will move up at an 8% annualized rate. If real rates are at 0%, then gold will move up at a 16% rate (that’s been about the story for the past decade). Conversely, if the real rate jumps to 3%, then gold will drop at an 8% rate.

These are the same guys who predicted silver would not go below $30 in 2013 and forecasted silver above $50 in 2014 so I really dont think they know what they are talking about. Now they are saying silver and gold will surge in the next 5 years. I mean, come on, anyone can make that prediction. I no longer have any faith in the likes of Jim Sinclair or Eric Sprott. Am just sitting on the sidelines in a wait and see attitide. As long as you have bankers controlling the etf matketyou cant make solid predictions unless you are a bank cartel insider.

Forget the price of Gold and Silver in USD. Today for a oz of Gold you can get 3 nice suits at a good taylor. In a 100 years if humans are still wearing suits your progeny can probably buy 3 nice suits. An oz of silver could buy you a tank of fuel. That makes sense so manipulated price im buying. Imagine if all the gold in the world is gone…we will be fine.. imagine all the silver is gone and no electronics? Eventually the price will “normalize” and you can buy a tank of fuel for a oz of silver again. PS – never buy what the governments hordes and controls, well except for guns and bullets. Going to the corner grocery store with a piece of gold does not make sense but silver is perfect for those small transactions. Buying the farm for a few pieces of gold is good then you can grow your own groceries and barter.
And somehow I believe that both gold and silver are going way down to the basement.
Everyone is buying it, and will have a backyard full of it, and at that time it will be almost worthless.
I know of only three other people in my entire (large) circle of family, friends, and co-workers who are even aware of silver and/or the issues surrounding it, and only one who is seriously including physical PM in his portfolio. I would heartily agree with statements I’ve previously read that 95% of the public has no idea of PMs or has any ownership of it whatsoever. So I disagree with you that “everyone’s buying it”. If your logic were true, then why are governments all over the world scrambling to repatriate their gold (and silver) and build up their reserves?
I’ll go on the record for:
Gold above $2,000 before Gold reaches less than $1,000.
Silver above $100 before Silver reaches less than $10.
Time wil tell, that and the Central Banks that run our Governments…
