PRECIOUS METALS | Investor Confidence Wavers as U.S. Stock Valuations Near Dot-Com Bubble Levels

The World Gold Council has highlighted concerns regarding U.S. stock market valuations, which are approaching levels reminiscent of the dot-com bubble era. According to Jin10, the Council warns that repeated failures to meet profit targets could undermine investor confidence. This scenario may lead to a reduction in leveraged operations, potentially amplifying stock price declines and increasing demand for safe-haven assets like gold. Historically, gold has performed well during periods of systemic risk, offering positive returns and mitigating losses across investment portfolios.
