Its getting to the point that it will be $3K regardless of spot. The news is that miners are shutting down and you'll only be able to purchase a promise from a dealer.
AND...................did anyone notice the big pump in premium on all gold????????????????????????????$90 on top of promised spot from Bullion Now, it was only $30 not long ago.
The premium will go up even more as gold become harder to get
Premium will go up to a point, then the miners will go up in value. Gold mining stocks (undervalued) is what you should be buying as physical premiums increase (overvalued). Buy physical as premiums decrease. That’s the pro trade though.. most should just accumulate physical with the monthly pay check. Stocks can screw you with irrational market movements.
