Gold Update: 25 Analysts Currently Forecasting $3,000 Gold; 5 Predicting $10,000 - $25,000 Gold By End Of Decade
5 more analysts are projecting that gold will be going at least as high as $3,000 per troy ounce (ozt.) over the next few years. Below is an updated list (see previous summary here) of the most recent analyst projections with the most recent forecasts designated as "NEW".
$25,000 Gold
1. Erik Lytikainen: $25,000 by 2030
- "We will not be surprised to see $25,000 per troy ounce of gold by the year 2030. It will likely be a volatile ride higher, with large drawdowns along the way." Source
$20,000 Gold
1. Goldrunner: $20,000 between mid-2028 and end of 2029
- "As a result of the recent massive paper money printing, our chart work suggests that gold could possibly spike up to as high as $20,000 per troy ounce - or even a bit higher - some time between mid-2028 and the end of 2029." Source
2. Briton Hill: $5,000-$20,000 in next 5 to 10 years (NEW!)
- "You can't produce trillions of dollars with 0% interest rates and not introduce inflation. Long-term, we could be entering a cycle similar to the 1970s, where the precious metal sector rose by thousands of percentage points, and if we see something like that happen again in the next 5-10 years, we could easily see $5,000, $10,000, even $20,000 gold," he said. "Gold could easily hit $20,000 per troy ounce in the next day decade." Source
$10,000 Gold
1. Bob Kirtley: $10,000
- "My target has been $10,000/ozt. since June 2006, so at that point, an exit strategy will be executed, hopefully with some handsome profits." Source:
2. Scott Minerd: $5,000 to $10,000 (NEW!)
- "As chaotic price swings of the crypto world push investors back into gold and silver, the precious metals will start to build momentum, with the ultimate gold price target set at $5,000-$10,000 per troy ounce." Source
$6,000 -$9,000 Gold
1. Graham Summers: $8,000
- "Gold first rallied about 630% from 2003-2011. It then corrected about 43% before bottoming in 2015 at $1,060/ozt.. If it follows a similar second leg up this time around, it’s going to ~$8,000 per troy ounce before it peaks." Source
2. Hubert Moolman: $7,758
-
"In my opinion, it is virtually guaranteed that gold will again catch up with the Dow’s performance since 1913, and significantly surpass it just like in the 70s. This means we will likely see gold reach $7,758/ozt. (in the near future) and eventually go on to reach multiples of that high." Source
3. Gov Capital: $3,384 by June 2022; $5,172 by June 2023; $7,337 by June 2024; $9.192 by June 2025 and $11,128 by June 2026 (NEW!)
- "5 year gold forecast: $11,128/ozt." Source
4. Mike McGlone: $7,000 by 2025
“From 2001-2011, gold advanced about 7.5 times, which if repeated would bring it to around $7,000/ozt. in 2025.” Source
$4,000 - $5,000 Gold
1. Dan Popescu: $5,000 in 5 years
- "Gold price could break above $5,000/ozt. in the next 5 years." Source
2. Chris Wood: $5,386
- "The gold price of US$850/ozt. at the peak of the last secular bull market in gold in January 1980 was then equivalent to 9.9% of US disposable income per capita. The gold price is now just 3.6% of US disposable income per capita. Therefore, to reach 9.9% of US disposable income per capita means gold should rise to US$5,386/ozt.. Source
3. Frank Holmes: $4,000 in 3 years
- "The yellow metal is set to rally in the same fashion as in the aftermath of the last recession and, if cycles are exactly the same, gold could go to $4,000/ozt.”. Source
4. Diego Parrilla: $3,000 to $5,000 in the next 3 to 5 years
- Unprecedented monetary stimulus is fueling asset bubbles and corporate debt addiction -- rendering interest-rate hikes impossible without an economic crash. In the ensuing market mania gold could rise to $3,000 to $5,000 per troy ounce in the next three to five years. Source
5. Massimiliano Bondurri: $3,000 to $5,000 in 3 to 5 years
- Massimiliano Bondurri, a capital founder and a CEО of SGMC, believes an ounce of gold will rise in price to $3,000 -$5,000 per troy ounce in the next 3-5 years. Source
6. Eric Fry: $3,000 to $4,000
- 'When this ballgame ends, gold with be trading for at least $3,000 a troy ounce, and an extra-inning affair would not surprise me — lifting the gold price past $4,000/ozt.." Source
7. Michael Cuggino: $4,000
- Cuggino, CEO of the Permanent Portfolio Family of Funds, a $1.9 billion mutual fund that is conservatively run and rated four stars by Morningstar, says it would “not be an unreasonable move” for gold to breach $4,000/ozt.. Source
$3,000 - $4,000 Gold
1. Victor Dergunov: $3,500 by end of 2022
- "When we consider that the monetary base is likely to surge to around $8 trillion by year-end, we can conclude that this will give us around a 10,000% increase from the roughly $80 billion in monetary base the U.S. had in the early 1970s. Likewise, we can apply a similar percentage to the $35/ozt. gold price around the same period. A 10,000% increase from the $35 gold price would put gold prices at around $3,500 per troy ounce, roughly 100% higher than where the price of gold is today, [and] I think it is quite likely that we will see gold prices appreciate to $3,500/ozt. by the end of 2022." Source
2. Charles Gibson: $3,281
- "Since 1967, the price of gold has shown an extremely strong (0.909) correlation with the total U.S. monetary base. The more dollars that either are, or could be, in circulation, the higher the expected gold price. With the total US monetary base now closing in on US$5.5tn the gold price could very reasonably be expected to rise to as high as US$3,281/ozt.” Source
3. Stewart Thomson: $3,000
- “Queen Gold is assured of launching above the key $2,000/ozt. price zone, ready to begin a rocket blast towards my medium-term $3,000/ozt. target!" Source
4. Mark O'Byrne: $3,000 in next 12 months
- "Gold is quite likely to climb to $3,000/ozt. in the next 12 months." Source
5. Joe Foster: $3,200 to $3,400
- "We...believe this to be a deflationary cycle and both recent deflationary gold bull markets suggest that a price over $3,000 per troy ounce is reasonable. In fact, if one believes, as we do, that the current central bank stimulus to fight the impacts of the COVID-19 virus, along with elevated levels of systemic risks, are similar to those during the global financial crisis, then $3,400/ozt. may be the target for this bull market.” Source
6. SomaBull: $3,000
- "The money supply is quickly heading to levels that would support a $3,000/ozt. gold price well in excess of fair value by the time this bull market is exhausted." Source
7. Yvo Timmermans and Paul Van den Noord: $1,900 to $3,000 over next 18 months
- "We anticipate gold will fall within a bandwidth of $1,900 and $3,000 per troy ounce over the next 18 months." Source
8. Jordan Roy-Byrne: +$3,000 (NEW!)
"Gold is currently building the handle portion of a cup and handle pattern, which we anticipate could break to the upside sometime in 2022 or early 2023. The measured upside target is $3,000/ozt., but these charts argue the run could go farther." Source
9. Adam Trexler: $3,000 (NEW!)
"With inflation coming, we'll see gold over $2,500/ozt. in real dollar terms but we'll see a devaluing of the dollar...[and] if you see 10% inflation, the dollar number value of gold could be much higher. I don't think $3,000/ozt. gold is impossible and, if we see a hyperinflation scenario, it could be significantly higher." Source

The pricing for gold is known to track a lack of confidence in the rest of the economy, and it also appears to track inflation fairly constantly. So of course gold prices will be rising as the purchasing ability of dollars declines. What else could it do??
I won't compare things to a car full of drunken squirrels driving, BUT..
With all of those trillions of freshly printed dollars suddenly appearing it should be quite clear that the next round of inflation will damage the bottom 90% of us in the USA. And I predict that some portion of those folks will figure out who did it and possibly demand some changes. Through legal and peaceful means, I hope.
