  $2,500? $5,000? $10,000+? Gold Price Forecasters Play A Fool's Game As These 148 ?Fools? Can Attest  
  Lorimer Wilson on 2018-11-27 18:36:26.0
 
 

This article looks back at the published gold price projections of 148 "analysts" and it is clearly evident that none - not one - knew what they were talking about. By trying to do so they were all playing a fool's game.

  • All 148 projected that gold would eventually reach a parabolic peak price of at least $2,500/ozt.,
  • 100 of them saw gold reaching at least $5,000/ozt.,
  • 17 predicted a parabolic peak price of as much as $10,000 per troy ounce and
  • 12 are on record as saying gold could go even higher than that.

Take a look below at who projected what future gold price they expected, by what date (most hedged their bets here by not providing a time frame so they would have a greater chance of eventually being right) and why such was likely.
