Cena zlata pred pádom

Aj napriek všeobecnému optimizmu v zlatom sektore mnohí analytici už upozorňujú, že cena žltého kovu je pred pádom. Preto investori, ktorí by ešte stále chceli investovať do tohto kovu by mali zvažovať načasovanie svojich investícií.

Niggling doubts have started to creep in - does gold have enough power to sally forth? Several researchers are revising their forecast and the bullish views are turning bearish. Can gold pull through?

The blaring headlines don’t help: `The yellow metal appears to have lost its lustre’; `Gold price appears to be facing strong headwinds’; `Investors are advised that they can find better returns in other asset classes.

“However, the time has come now to revise their positions. If the past 30 years are any indication, gold does not constitute an attractive investment over the long term. Moreover, in times of economic recovery, the return on gold falls well short of the return on the stock market.”

Sorry to bring on the pessimists, but though investors have been happy to go with current momentum, some unease remains over the market’s fundamental picture and the extent of long positioning.

So, when you want the answer to what’s in it for me, one advise: Don’t do it … Don’t invest in gold just because it’s popular right now. For, investors often lose sight of longer-term historical investment results, especially during short-term periods of extreme volatility and trending markets.

Short-term, return-chasing investing is precisely what is driving this modern-day gold rush and that is exactly why you should be looking elsewhere.

Remember, bullion has no direct link to economic growth as do other commodities, doesn’t earn a return, offers limited hedging advantages and hasn’t kept pace with inflation. Moreover, the world’s biggest holders of gold, major central banks, aren’t overly eager to keep owning it.
