A Battle of Gold Bulls and Bears
On this week’s Gold Game Film with Kitco News, Daniela Cambone asks Frank Holmes what investors should be watching to see where the gold price could go this week. Frank acknowledges that the strong U.S. dollar continues to push gold prices lower, but makes a case for the yellow metal on the back of research from the World Gold Council that shows a 1 percent increase in GDP has lifted jewelry consumption by around 5 percent – a positive for gold.
