Frank Holmes - If Greece Leaves The Euro, Gold Adds $200

Presidents’ Day has passed and gold is down as Kitco News welcomes Gold Game Film and Frank Holmes to sort through it all. Focusing on Greece, Holmes sees these talks between the Greeks and the European Union as rocking the boat of political instability, saying “now it’s a 50% probability they’ll leave the euro.” He expands by noting that the new government’s opposition to El Dorado’s gold mine brings to light a troubling socialist attitude. Should this instability lead to Greece abandoning the euro, Holmes sees it as a bullish sentiment for gold prices.

Gold Extremely Oversold: Frank Holmes - Kitco News

Kitco News catches up with US Global Investors CEO Frank Holmes to talk about gold at the Metals & Minerals Investment Conference in San Francisco. Holmes' biggest message to investors at the conference is to be a contrarian. "I just came back from a trip in Asia...and it's so important to recognize what is taking place in these other parts of the world," he says. With regards to gold investments, Holmes says that he has always advocated an allocation 10% weighting in gold. "For the past 10 years, this model of taking the S&P at 90% and our gold funds at 10% and rebalancing each year, you are still up; you are still ahead in your overall fund performance and even with gold down for 2 years, so this model does work." Holmes also shares some key trends in jewelry demand in India and says that "the love for gold is not going away." Watch now to hear what he thinks may be the most bullish factor for the US dollar in the coming year and what range he is looking at for gold. Kitco News, November 25, 2013.

Gold Prices Hit a New Record today

Frank Holmes, U.S. Global Investors CEO/chief investment officer says that Gold prices can move 15% over any 12 month period "the big bubbles in any sector usually take place with excessive leverage , when gold went $850 in 1980, the futures market was leveraged ten to one ,the bulk of this gold today is not leveraged and you're also seeing emerging market central bankers buying gold. we saw Mexico, Korea, you're seeing a shift and that's basically a cash trade . I think the bouillon ETF is predominantly a cash trade. so we're not in a bubble. we do not have an exponential move , when we look at NASDAQ in the '90s or we look at gold what it did in the '70s , what it did in the '70s."

Frank Holmes Gold Absolutely Still a Buy: Metal Will Double in 5 Years

Gold jumped back above $1300 per ounce Tuesday morning and "absolutely" has more upside ahead, according to Frank Holmes, CEO and CIO of U.S. Global Investors, which has about $2.6 billion of assets.

Despite all the hype about its multi-year rally, gold is actually lagging many other commodities in that it hasn't yet eclipsed its 1980 high on an inflation-adjusted basis, Holmes says, noting the same is true of silver.

"If we were to go through those 1980 [inflation-] adjusted prices, gold would be at $2300 per ounce today," he says, calling that a "fair" target for the metal.

There is no bubble" in gold, Holmes says, declaring "it's a pretty easy layup that gold can double" from here over the next 5 years.

Holmes, who co-manages U.S. Global's Gold & Precious Metals Fund and World Precious Minerals Fund, cites the following to justify his bullish outlook:

Growth in Global Money Supply: Government efforts to fight the credit crisis have included huge spending and debt guarantee programs, resulting in greater supply but less confidence in "paper money." (On Tuesday, the Dollar Index fell to its lowest level since early February as weak U.S. economic data point to more efforts by the Fed to "reflate" the economy via quantitative easing.)

Emerging Middle Class: The big difference between gold's current run and the bull market of the 1970's is the "economic footprint" of emerging market economies, most notably India and China, Holmes says. "Forty percent of the world's population believe in gold and give gold as gifts" -- and have the money to buy them in increasing numbers.

The Big Dumb Money: "All the pension funds, all the endowment [funds] aren't running into gold...yet," Holmes says, noting those investors "piled into" tech in 2000 and private equity funds in 2006. Meanwhile, European Central Banks have dramatically slowed their gold sales and could become buyers in the years ahead.

Alchemy vs. Reality: Gold skeptics often note that almost every ounce of gold ever mined remains in existence. That may be true, but Holmes says new supply is on the wane, suggesting it's "easier to invent a new technology" than find a 10 million ounce deposit. And if you were to discover such a bonanza, you'd have to incur huge infrastructure costs and meet rising regulatory hurdles to get the 'yellow metal' out of the ground.

Of course, you should question anything that looks like a "can't lose" investment - and bulls say gold wins whether the economy is hit by deflation or inflation. But gold has defied its skeptics for a decade and shows no sign of letting up now.
