Two Famous American Hedge Fund Managers Suggest to Buy Gold

NEW YORK, May 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

This week George Soros, a legendary investor, disclosed he purchased $264 million worth of shares in Barrick Gold and 1.1 million options to buy SPDR Gold ETF. But the "man who broke the Bank of England", is not the only one with bullish views on Gold. Last week at the Ira Sohn Investment Conference in New York, Stanley Druckenmiller, a famous American hedge fund manager and the former Chairman and President of Duquesne Capital, gave his opinions and suggestions regarding the near term future of the stock market. His message was simple enough - get out of the stock market and buy gold. Brazil Resources Inc. (BRI.V), Kinross Gold Corporation (K.TO), Newmont Mining Corp (NYSE: NEM), Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd (AEM.TO), Direxion Shares Exchange Traded Fund Trust (NYSEARCA: NUGT)

According to Stanley Druckenmiller, "The bull market is exhausting itself… The Fed has borrowed from future consumption more than ever before. It is the least data dependent Fed in history. This is the longest deviation from historical norms in terms of Fed dovishness than I have ever seen in my career."

When big names in the finance world give their advice many follow, and yet this week hasn't been particularly good for gold investors. On Wednesday Federal Reserve officials reaffirmed that a rate hike is possible this coming June.

Shares of the Direxion Shares Exchange Traded Fund Trust (NYSEARCA: NUGT) fell about 24% by the end of the day after the FOMC minutes were released.

Yet the stock market indexes rebounded intraday and closing slightly green or flat. Michael Hartnett, a chief investment strategist at Merrill Lynch, indicated many investors are very bearish and nervous about a "summer of shocks." Gold remains an attractive buy in the eyes of investors as a protection against a volatile market. As a result the gains that some gold companies have witnessed are quite astonishing.
