2012 Predictions

Welcome to the Buy High Sell Higher 2012 Predictions page.

In December, 2011 members of the Buy High Sell Higher Forum were given the opportunity to put their reputations on the line and post their predictions for 2011. All predictions were made no later than before the markets opened on January 2, 2012, so what you read here are the predictions as posted at that time.

Here is a mathematical summary (the average) of our Forum members’ predictions for 2012:

The Price of Gold Will Be:

Price of Gold
Date Price per Ounce $US
March 31, 2012
$ 1,636
June 30, 2012
$ 1,663
September 30, 2012
$ 1,756
December 31, 2012
$ 1,896

The DOW will close at:

DOW
Date DOW Close
March 31, 2012
12,303
June 30, 2012
11,780
September 30, 2012
 11,668
December 31, 2012
11,725

The consensus appears to be that gold will continue to increase as the year progresses, and the Dow will continue to erode into the middle of the year, and then remain flat for the balance of the year.

Comments? Agree or disagree? What to understand why someone is predicting what they are predicting? Post your questions or comments on the 2012 Predictions Board on the Buy High Sell Higher Forum.

And, lest you think this is a bunch of nonsense, the 2010 predictions were freakishly accurate (we predicted the gold price correctly within $2 of the final price).
