Citi says gold could get sold off after the US election

Wall Street Journal convey the info from analysts at Citi:

  • A win by Trump, who proposes tax cuts, would likely support equities instead of gold
  • Gold fell by 8.2% in the month that followed Trump’s 2016 victory
  • Gold is held by some as a hedge against uncertainty, has tended to struggle in the weeks following most U.S. elections since the 1980s

Citi still like buying dips:

  • bull market remains intact
  • expect prices to rise to $3,000/oz over the next six months (weakening US labor market and rising ETF demand)
