Jim Rogers: Gold Price to Double in Coming Months

CommodityOnline
November 27, 2009

The rally in gold prices has driven several bullion analysts to frenzied forecasts. Some say gold prices will reach $2,000 per ounce soon. Others are predicting big boom for the yellow metal, saying gold prices will zoom to $5,000 and eventually to even $15,000 per ounce in the years to come.

What is happening in bullion market these days? Yes, agreed that weakening dollar, global economic meltdown, shrinking gold supply and increasing cost of mining gold from the earth are all making gold the most-sought after investment these days. That is also driving the yellow metal prices to record highs.

These days, the biggest gold buyers are not individual customers or families, but global central bankers that are vying with each other to accumulate gold reserves in an attempt to get out of their decades-old dependence on the US dollar as the best asset class. India jumped into the bullion fray to buy 200 tonnes of gold from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) early this month. Other countries like China, Russia, Brazil and Sri Lanka are frantically trying to accumulate gold reserves.

The rally in gold prices has driven several bullion analysts to frenzied forecasts. Some say gold prices will reach $2,000 per ounce soon. Others are predicting big boom for the yellow metal, saying gold prices will zoom to $5,000 and eventually to even $15,000 per ounce in the years to come.

Yes, agreed that weakening dollar, global economic meltdown, shrinking gold supply and increasing cost of mining gold from the earth are all making gold the most-sought after investment these days. That is also driving the yellow metal prices to record highs.

These days, the biggest gold buyers are not individual customers or families, but global central bankers that are vying with each other to accumulate gold reserves in an attempt to get out of their decades-old dependence on the US dollar as the best asset class. India jumped into the bullion fray to buy 200 tonnes of gold from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) early this month. Other countries like China, Russia, Brazil and Sri Lanka are frantically trying to accumulate gold reserves.

Agreed that gold has emerged as the best asset class among bullion traders, central bankers and families across the world, how far can the yellow metal price surge?

One of the avid proponents who is arguing that gold price will surge past $2,000 soon is the legendary commodities investor Jim Rogers. Rogers, chairman of Singapore-based firm Rogers Holdings, says gold prices are booming because currencies across the world are dropping and the US dollar is collapsing. His latest forecast: gold will touch double the current price—around $1,150. Meaning, Rogers says gold will surge to $2,300 per ounce in the coming months.

But it is easy for renowned investors like Rogers to make forecasts like this. Rogers is a big commodities investor. He invests basically in agricultural commodities. He is going gaga over his commodities investments in the hot destination he loves, China. But is Rogers investing in gold these days? No, not to my knowledge. Investors like Jim Rogers love gold, but they hate to invest in gold at this high price.

Investors like Rogers are not putting in money into gold these days because they know sensibly well that investing in yellow metal is “nonsense.â€

PUMP AND DUMP.

Gold is too high right now. Big investors are "pumping" so that YOU WILL BUY GOLD....SO THEY CAN MAKE MORE MONEY. Then when it truly reaches fever pitch....they will sell at top dollar and leave you holding the bag (of gold) which will then "dump." As soon as everyone sees it go down and they sell, the price will dive....at which time wealthy investors buy it cheap and wait for the next bubble. Don't buy it right now. Wait till the "dump" and then buy cheap.

I agree there will be a dump on the price AS THERE ALWAYS IS to cause panic selling .. BUY AND HOLD

I would hold it if you already have it....and hold on tight for the roller coaster ride that is about to occur. Never sell during a market panic and never buy during a market fever.
