With gold prices sinking to 2019′s lowest level last Thursday, Standard Chartered’s Suki Cooper believes they’re closing in on oversold territory. One of her key assumptions: The Fed its interest rate hike policy on hold through next year.
“The Fed will be on hold in 2019 [and] 2020 as it prepares its tools for the next downturn which is likely to come in 2021,” the firm’s executive director of precious metals research told.
Plus, Cooper notes gold follows a historical pattern that leads to higher prices when the Fed puts the breaks on a hiking cycle and even went on to cut rates. Cooper suggests central bank buying and increasing demand from China and India will also likely to support gold prices at higher levels versus 2018. She expects the yellow metal to test last year’s closing high of $1362 in the final three months of the year.
