Chris Temple, founder, editor and publisher of the National Investor, outlined the main factors he sees impacting the gold price heading into 2025, saying the yellow metal will undoubtedly move higher.
In his view, its rise will come as market participants realize how many problems the US economy is facing.
‘I think that once that reality sets in, gold will get its next big lease on life and the stock market is going to bog down. I think we’re going to see a lot of rotation in the market that will start to favor real assets and real value — away from everybody chasing the same relative handful of stocks as we’ve seen,’ Temple explained.
Aside from gold, Temple spoke about natural gas and uranium, his other two favorite commodities in the near term.
He also discussed the potential implications of Donald Trump’s second presidency, saying it will be key to watch how he develops the US’ relationship with China, especially as the Asian nation grapples with internal problems.
‘This is the most important thing that consumers and investors and policy makers need to watch in 2025 — is Trump smart on how he deals with all of this and rebuilds our own industries to compensate for years down the road? Or is he going to be ham-fisted about it and cause more problems than he solves?’ Temple questioned.
