Bitcoin will hinder gold’s growth this year, Bloomberg’s top analyst says
Mike McGlone is the latest analyst to foresee a gloomy future for gold. In a technical outlook comparing gold and Bitcoin, the chief commodity analyst of Bloomberg stated that gold is likely “ready for a nap.”
McGlone opines that even though gold’s momentum may be rekindled in March, it would likely enter another round of an “extended rest period.” According to him, the obstacles that will hinder gold’s growth this year will be “good resistance and [the] relatively new-comer Bitcoin.”
