Stewart Thomson:

Robert Lenzer:

Michael Yorba:

Roland Watson:

Howard Katz:
The only thing which can stop this and invalidate my $14,000 gold prediction is some kind of political “miracle” such as a sweeping Republican victory in 2010.
My personal favorite from this group is Clem Chambers, a contributor to the “Intelligent Investing” channel on Forbes. His February 2012 column included a prediction for gold to hit $5,000:
