With interest rate cuts just around the corner, gold prices are up to a record high of $2,550. From here, the safe haven could push even higher with uncertainty over the nearing presidential election and geopolitical issues. All of which could be beneficial for gold stocks, including U.S. Gold Corp. (NASDAQ: USAU), Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE: GOLD) (TSX: ABX), Royal Gold Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD), Franco Nevada Corp. (NYSE: FNV) (TSX: FNV), and Newmont Corp. (NYSE: NEM) (TSX: NGT).
“Growing concerns around the geopolitical landscape, domestic unrest driven by a hypersensitive presidential election year, and heightened anxiety in a challenging economic environment sets a backdrop for consumers to seek refuge in some semblance of safety,” added Sean Mason, an investment advisor representative with Fresno Financial Advisors, as quoted by CBS News.
In addition, analysts at Morningstar say gold could reach $2,600 by 2025. It could even rally to $3,000 by 2025, according to Bank of America. In fact, according to the analysts, “We believe gold can hit $3,000/oz over the next 12-18 months, although flows do not justify that price level right now,” as quoted by Investing.com. Goldman Sachs says it could rally to $2,700 by 2025.
