Noting that the U.S. 10-year real yield, which typically has an inverse relationship with gold, has risen sharply during the past week, Saxo said this direction is unsustainable and that yields will eventually move back into a deeper negative territory. It also noted that the cost of fuel, which accounts for 20% of mining cost, has collapsed, meaning gold miners are not suffering to the extent the drop in gold would imply.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21513\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21513\" style=\"width: 1462px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-21513\" src=\"https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/10-yr.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1462\" height=\"969\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/10-yr.jpg 1462w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/10-yr-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/10-yr-1024x679.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/10-yr-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/10-yr-696x461.jpg 696w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/10-yr-1392x923.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1462px) 100vw, 1462px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-21513\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.home.saxo\/content\/articles\/commodities\/golds-current-headwinds-unlikely-to-persist-17032020\">Saxo Bank.<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.home.saxo\/content\/articles\/commodities\/golds-current-headwinds-unlikely-to-persist-17032020\"><strong>Read more&gt;&gt;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>IHS Markit sees gold prices falling to $1,300\/oz \u2013 and possibly even lower<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Bottom Line: <\/strong>In contrast to Saxo\u2019s bullish stance, IHS Markit sees gold prices falling to $1,300\/oz in the second half of the year as investors continue to hoard cash. Speaking to Kitco, precious metals analyst KC Chang said that if economic projections continue to weaken, gold prices could even fall back to 2015 lows of around $1,050\/oz. With five-year inflation expectations likely to drop as low as 1%, there is no real urgency to buy gold, Chang said. While there may be some upward price volatility in gold as a safe-haven asset, many retail and professional investors will struggle to find the capital to buy gold, he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21520\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21520\" style=\"width: 2036px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-21520\" src=\"https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/gold-spot-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2036\" height=\"1339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/gold-spot-1.jpg 1557w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/gold-spot-1-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/gold-spot-1-1024x673.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/gold-spot-1-768x505.jpg 768w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/gold-spot-1-1536x1010.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/gold-spot-1-696x458.jpg 696w, https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/gold-spot-1-1392x915.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2036px) 100vw, 2036px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-21520\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Bloomberg.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kitco.com\/news\/2020-03-19\/Gold-prices-can-fall-to-1-300-an-ounce-as-recession-looms-IHS-Markit.html\"><strong>Read more&gt;&gt;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Kirkland Lake Gold announces share repurchase plan, doubles quarterly dividend<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Bottom Line: Kirkland Lake Gold<\/strong> [stock_market_widget type=\"inline\" template=\"generic\" color=\"default\" assets=\"KL.TO\" markup=\"(TSX: {symbol} {currency_symbol}{price} ({change_pct}))\" api=\"yf\"][stock_market_widget type=\"inline\" template=\"generic\" color=\"default\" assets=\"KL\" markup=\"(NYSE: {symbol} {currency_symbol}{price} ({change_pct}))\" api=\"yf\"] rose 14% in the week to Thursday close following a double dose of good news.
