Predictions

Background

Gold rose to within a whisker of its all-time high on Wednesday, as record low U.S. new home sales stirred talk of extended central banks' accommodative policies, and a possible collapse of Portugal's government rekindled euro zone debt worries.

Bullion rose 0.7 percent to $1,439.76 per ounce, just short of its record $1,444.40 set on March 7, rebounding over 4 percent in the last eight sessions amid safe-haven buying and ongoing Western air strikes on Libya.

"Gold rose on a culmination of further concerns about the European debt issue, coupled with the situation in Libya and very strong crude prices," said Brian Hicks, portfolio manager of U.S. Global Investors' Global Resources Fund (PSPFX.O) with about $1 billion assets under management.
