Key Quotes
“Since last year, we have maintained a positive outlook for gold due to expectations of “lower for longer” interest rates.”
“Gold has since staged a strong rally over the past month, pushing its way above our quarterly longer term forecast of USD 1,850 / oz by 2Q21. With this latest rally, gold has broken above the previous peak of USD 1,920 in Sep 2011. In terms of technical outlook, we note that “the upward momentum is strong and the focus is at USD 2,000. Next resistance of note above USD 2,000 is around USD 2,040 followed by USD 2,100”.
“Fundamentally, the various positive drivers for gold price, particularly that of the massive central bank easing remain as strong as ever. However, we note that long positioning in gold has become extremely crowded with ETF tonnage rising to yet a new record high. As such, there is now an increasingly speculative element in gold’s price action with larger intra-day swings as traders are positioned for gold to trade above USD 2,000 / oz.”
