Gold price 2024

Expectations of interest rate cuts and falling bond yields are paving the way for higher gold prices. Last year, the price of the precious metal soared above the 2,000 US dollar mark. It is understandable that the new record price at the end of the year led to profit-taking. The price of gold is currently defending levels above the USD 2,000 mark. New record prices appear to be within reach. Should prices actually fall below USD 2,000 per troy ounce of gold this year, this should result in enormous buying.

When the Fed implemented interest rate hikes, the price of gold nevertheless remained strong, barely falling below USD 2,000. If interest rates are cut, this should drive the gold price up all the more. Even if the Fed is not yet talking about interest rate cuts in the near future, most analysts are assuming this. Many also believe that inflation will remain at three or four percent. Further cuts could only be achieved through action by the Fed, but this is unlikely to happen for fear of another financial crisis. After all, the Fed will not want to risk the USA going bankrupt.

In view of the immense national debt, high interest rates are poison for the USA. All of this should lift the price of gold to new heights in the course of this year. The all-time high for the price of the precious metal from December 2023 could therefore soon be surpassed. It would therefore be advisable to own physical gold and gain exposure to gold companies with leverage on the gold price. Solid stocks such as OceanaGold or GoldMining could be considered.
