Gold’s dropping. You want to buy.
But wait just a minute...
Is your desire to buy gold now based on reasonable analysis of market conditions? Or is it simply an emotional reaction to the selloff?
“Markets are doing well so people head in that direction. But for the long-term, I’m a buyer. I think there’s a lot of inflation coming. So I’ll slowly buy in expecting lower priced and will be excited when they fall. But later I’ll expect higher prices and will be excited as they rise... sort of.”
Apply this line of thinking to gold. The gold market was booming. So naturally, people headed in its direction. Investors, traders, hedge funds and your crazy coworker bought gold. People wanted to own it because of its performance. Now they are leaving. And they won’t be rushing back to buy anytime soon.
I repeat -- don’t jump back into gold. It’s too soon.
If you are well versed in trading, you could try to play a snapback move in gold futures or miners.
If that’s your game, keep tight stops and expect the unexpected. This thing is just getting started...
