Gold’s Rally Seen by OCBC’s Gan Heading for Reversal

Gold’s rally will reverse this half and investors should bet on a second annual drop as global growth gains traction, according to the second-most accurate precious metals price forecaster tracked by Bloomberg.

Bullion will retreat to $1,150 an ounce at the end of 2014 as the U.S. Federal Reserve presses on with cuts to stimulus, Barnabas Gan, an economist at Singapore-based Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp., said in a phone interview. That’s about 13 percent lower than today’s price, and would be a 4.3 percent loss for the year. Silver will also decline, he said.
