Jeff Gundlach of DoubleLine capital made a bold prediction last week, and the story was picked up by CNN Money. He claimed that gold (NYSE: GLD) will soon be at $1400 per ounce. He could be right. But something about the tone of the article strikes me as off putting. Maybe it’s the fact that that me might have put a ton of his own marketing towards the creation of it. The sub heading is “One of America’s Top Money Managers Predicts Gold Prices Will Soon Spike.” For crying out loud, I feel like most people have never even heard of this guy. Warren Buffett is one of America’s top money managers. Jeff Gundlach being called on is like calling Tony Snell one of the best players in the NBA. Who is Tony Snell? Exactly. Putting all that aside, does he have a point? It’s hard to say. It’s easy to call a spike in gold when the market starts tumbling, it’s hard to get the timing right. My personal opinion is that 2016 will be rocky, and you shouldn’t dump a lot of money into the metal based on what Mr. Gundlach is saying.
