Banking crisis – catalyst for the gold price

Perhaps the banking crisis is now the driver that will lift gold to $2,000 or higher, even more so now that Credit Suisse has hit the headlines in Europe. Bloomberg Intelligence is not the only one to assume that the Fed will stop its tightening cycle. The U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission reportedly have launched their own investigations into the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank. And Moody downgraded the U.S. banking system from stable to negative. Moody is one of the three largest credit rating agencies in the United States. Looking back at 2018, it is striking that the situation was similar. Back then, signals that a transition from tightening to easing was imminent caused gold to crack $1,350 per ounce. A rally to US$2,060 followed. So today, some experts consider 3,000 U.S. dollars per ounce possible. Above all, if one assumes in addition a recession in the USA. Gold could therefore prove to be a top performer.

Gold is an essential metal in the financial markets and in society. Gold and mining expert Byron King calls gold the only true measure of value in our growing multipolar world. Even though only about seven percent of it is used in industry. Byron King says rampant government spending and low interest rates have led to the global ruin of fiat currencies. More than a decade of loose monetary policy is now taking its toll. Gold can provide value and some stability. Gold is not only a global reserve currency, but also an inflation hedge for private investors. That’s where investments in gold companies such as Gold Royalty or OceanaGold come in.
