Off topic, gold, this LOL’d me:
“I really have no ability to forecast gold prices… I have been in the business for 30 years, and it occupies my mind day and night….I don’t care if you are Einstein...It’s impossible to forecast for a week from now and a year from now.”
[Peter Munk, chairman of Barrick Gold ABX, who is set to retire next week]
Forecasts: Michael Haigh, the head of commodities research at SocGen, and Goldman’s Jeffrey Currie, who both correctly predicted the 2013 bullion rout, are sticking with predictions that gold will resume its decline this year. Currie said in an April 13 report that prices will touch $1,050 in 12 months.
