It will probably only be a matter of time before a new record price for gold delights investors. The Fed will probably pause its interest rate hikes. Because then it can assess what the effects of the last rate hikes are on the economy. Inflation is still high, there are recession fears as well as risks regarding financial stability. In addition, there is the debt ceiling on U.S. debt, which is once again causing concern and also does not argue for further Fed rate hikes.

Safe investments like gold are in demand. All the more so after the renewed collapse of a U.S. bank led to a sell-off of regional banks. Figures from the U.S. labor market point to a slowdown, again a plus for gold. Chartists see the chances of gold heading towards an all-time high as greater than the possibility of a sharp sell-off. Short-term price weaknesses in the precious metal, should they occur now, should quickly become a thing of the past. The Fed has just announced the tenth interest rate hike (0.25 basis points). Whether a pause in interest rates is coming, one held oneself covered. Currently, interest rate cuts have been ruled out.

But probably we have seen the last interest rate hike now, so many industry insiders think. The inflation rate in the U.S. is currently 5.6 percent, which is still far too high. Even if further interest rate hikes come, gold stocks belong in every broadly based investment portfolio. Companies such as Chesapeake Gold or Karora Resources would come into consideration.

Chesapeake Gold – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/chesapeake-gold-corp/ – has gold and silver deposits in North and South America. The main project is the Metates project (gold, silver, zinc) in Mexico.
