Gold touched $1,800 for the first time in eight years.
Many of the largest gold mining stocks - Barrick, Newmont, FrancoNevada, Wheaton Precious - are up 60% to 90% in the past year.
That means they're moving 2X to 3X higher than the "record setting" NASDAQ.
And this is only the beginning.
Now that gold is at $1,800, a few new factors come into play...
First, from a technical perspective, if they can hold this level then gold prices can quickly move toward all-time highs north of $1,900 per ounce. (Gold prices are of course already at all-time highs in many other currencies that don't have a Fed to fight.)
Second, gold is starting to gain mainstream attention and recognition.
In a mid-June article, Reuters reported that:
As stock markets roar back from the coronavirus-led rout, advisers to the world's wealthy are urging them to hold more gold, questioning the strength of the rally and the long-term impact of global central banks' cash splurge.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, most private banks recommended their clients hold none or just a tiny amount of gold.
Now some are channelling up to 10% of their clients' portfolios into the yellow metal as the massive central bank stimulus reduces bond yields - making non-yielding gold more attractive - and raises the risk of inflation that would devalue other assets and currencies.
While gold prices have already risen 14% since the start of the year to $1,730 an ounce, many private bankers bet that gold - a hedge for both inflation and deflation - has further to run.
The mainstream media recognizing gold as a hedge against both inflation and deflation?
Who woulda thunk it?
And look at how much these banks are recommending their clients hold in gold: 10%!
According to the article:
Nine private banks spoken to by Reuters, which collectively oversee around $6 trillion in assets for the world's ultra-rich, said they had advised clients to increase their allocation to gold.
Now, let's do some rough math.
Ten percent of $6 trillion is $600 billion.
And that's just from nine banks.
