31 Price Outlook - Positives Good scope for growth in investment demand, driven by loose monetary policy, growing inflation concerns and ongoing sovereign debt crisis. Growing buy-side interest from official sector in developing countries. Price floor for gold has risen, with mid to high $1,500s prices likely to see more fabrication demand, strong bar hoarding and less scrap supply. Real money managers commitment, e.g. pension funds, still very low. For example, only 0.15% of total US pension fund assets are believed to be in gold.
32 Price Outlook - Negatives Fabrication demand remains low. Scrap supply can increase. There will be response to major increases in local prices. De-hedging will fall sharply to trivial levels. Market surplus (mine production + scrap less fabrication demand) forecast to rise
