Kitco News' Daniela Cambone welcomed Frank Holmes back to the program to discuss key trends moving markets right now.

Frank Holmes joined Daniela Cambone on Kitco News to discuss the latest updates in the gold market. The yellow metal rallied above $1,500 last week for the first time since September 2013, but Frank warns that we could see a correction, as gold is up two and a half standard deviations over 60 trading days. “We can easily pull back and then ratchet up to a higher level.” Frank advocates a 10 percent portfolio weighting in gold and recommends that investors “buy in the dips” if gold pulls back slightly.
