So when will gold prices touch the $3,000 mark? Senior Bloomberg Commodity Strategist Mike McGlone predicts in the latest update that the next leg-up for gold prices is $3,000 an ounce. He also warned that crude oil prices could dip drastically and fall to $50 a barrel due to the tensions in the Middle East.

According to McGlone’s prediction, gold has a better chance of reaching the $3,000 mark in the next six to 18 months. Therefore, the precious metal could reach the target by the end of 2025, he forecasted.
“Gold $3,000, Crude $50, Copper and Corn $4 vs. S&P 500 at 5,000. Commodity buoyancy may depend on the S&P 500 sustaining above 5,000. The fact that beta can drop 10% below that and still be in an uptrend from the 2020 low may augur risks of commodity deflation. Paths for gold toward $3,000 an ounce, WTI Crude oil at $50 a barrel, and copper and corn below $4 a pound/bushel could get easier if the index breaches 5,000 support,” he estimated.
