DoubleLine’s Gundlach predicts gold surge to $4,000 per ounce

March 17, 2025 (MLN): Gold prices could surge to $4,000 per ounce from their current level of approximately $3,000, according to Jeffrey Gundlach, CEO of DoubleLine Capital.

Gundlach, often referred to as the "Bond King," made this bold prediction citing the precious metal’s ongoing bull market, which he has been discussing for several years.

According to Gundlach, the bull market for gold has been evident since the metal’s price was around $1800 per ounce, as per investing.com

He expressed skepticism towards conservative estimates that only see gold reaching $3000, noting that such a target is not particularly ambitious given that gold is already trading near that level.

He emphasized that forecasting a rise to $3000 is more meaningful when starting from $1800 rather than when the price is already close to $2900.

Gundlach indicated that the long period of consolidation around the $1800 mark has set the stage for a significant upward move in gold prices.

While he did not commit to a specific timeline for when gold might hit the $4000 mark, he suggested that this level is a reasonable expectation based on the metal’s price action.

Gold has traditionally been seen as a safe-haven asset, with investors often turning to it during times of economic uncertainty.

Gundlach’s statement comes at a time when investors are closely monitoring various economic indicators and geopolitical developments that could impact the price of gold.

DoubleLine Capital, where Gundlach serves as CEO, is known for its expertise in fixed income and has a strong focus on macroeconomic analysis.

Gundlach’s comments on gold reflect his broader economic outlook and suggest a continued bullish stance on the precious metal.
