Gold Prices Predicted To Reach A New High of $3,000, A surge of 35%
Senior commodity strategist Mike McGlone has forecasted that gold prices could touch a new all-time high of $3,000 in 2024. The growing tensions between Israel and Palestine, Russia and Ukraine, and disruption in trade in the Red Sea will make gold skyrocket.

McGlone explained that gold prices are already on the path to hit $3,000 by the end of 2024. That’s a surge of approximately 35% from its current price of $2,254. Therefore, an investment of $10,000 could turn into $13,500 in the next nine months if the prediction turns out accurate.
The global tensions will help gold prices spike as it is a safe haven and a hedge against inflation. The development “may portend a firming foundation for the metal,” McGlone summed it up.

If gold prices reach the $3,000 threshold, then the US dollar’s DXY index might drastically fall below the 100 mark. Therefore, the US dollar currency remains in the danger zone against surging gold and the broader commodity markets.
