Catalyst Funds' Miller Sees Gold at $5,000 in 2 Years as Deficits Erode Bonds

1 articles · Updated · Kitco NEWS · Aug 10

Summary

  • $5,000 an ounce is achievable within two to two-and-a-half years, David Miller said, after gold's nearly $300 breakout rally revived momentum even as prices may need time to digest the move.
  • Persistent U.S. deficits, inflation and central-bank diversification are the main drivers, he said, arguing they weaken the appeal of fixed-income assets and keep a structural bid under gold.
  • China should remain a significant long-term buyer, Miller said, while sovereign institutions still want less exposure to dollar-denominated reserves despite some easing in tariff-related pressure.
  • Mid-to-high single-digit gains this year are still possible, he said, especially if inflation stays around 3% and bond yields fail to deliver positive real returns after taxes.
  • That backdrop underpins Miller's broader case for real assets over traditional bonds and the strategy behind Catalyst-linked ETF GOLY, which pairs gold exposure with income from investment-grade corporate bonds.
