Why you shouldn’t give up on gold as a long-term investment just yet

Lots of investors remain bearish on gold prices. While there are still some short-term headwinds (such as a strengthening U.S. dollar) for gold prices, MarketWatch believes gold is still a solid long-term investment for these four reasons:

  1. Gold mine production will peak in 2015 at current prices.
  2. The European Monetary Union’s viability is questionable.
  3. The Federal Reserve will remain dovish.
  4. Indian demand for gold is already recovering.
