Rosenberg Research plans to return to gold trading when the price drops below $4,000 per ounce, after gold has already fallen 20%. Founder David Rosenberg pointed out that the dollar's appreciation and rising interest rates are the reasons for the decline, and he stated he will increase his current 5% gold position.

Rosenberg Research stated that they plan to seize the “earliest opportunity to re-enter gold trading,” possibly entering the market when gold prices fall below $4,000 per ounce. The company’s founder and economist, David Rosenberg, said that gold has fallen 20% from its peak, partly due to a wave of margin calls triggered by declining asset prices. He stated, “Gold has always been a sacrificial asset.” He added that other factors driving the decline in gold prices include the rise in the dollar and real interest rates following the outbreak of the Iran war, as well as speculators exiting gold trades after a surge in gold prices earlier this year. Rosenberg said his firm has taken profits on its gold holdings, which once had an exposure of up to 20%, but plans to increase their position from the current 5%.
