Gold’s 6.4% plunge marks a significant shake-up — the largest since 2013 — and many traders see $4,000 as a key psychological and technical support level. A decisive break below that could trigger algorithmic selling, sending prices toward $3,900 or even $3,800.
Personally, I would not rush to “buy the dip” yet. While long-term fundamentals for gold remain solid — driven by persistent inflation concerns, central bank accumulation, and geopolitical uncertainty — short-term momentum has clearly shifted bearish. A gradual accumulation strategy might be more prudent: start scaling in around $4,000 but reserve liquidity in case it slides further.
Yes, gold remains a small but strategic holding in my portfolio (mainly via ETFs), serving as a hedge against volatility and fiat debasement. But for now, I’d prefer patience — waiting for confirmation of a rebound before adding aggressively.
