Could gold truly surge 30% before year-end—and set the stage for a financial reset?

That’s exactly what technical strategist Chris Vermeulen told ITM Trading’s Daniela Cambone in their latest interview, as he doubled down on his bold $5,100 gold price forecast.

Vermeulen’s analysis frames gold’s recent pullback as nothing more than a three-wave correction within an ongoing secular bull market—the calm before an explosive move that could mirror 2008’s pre-crisis setup. If he’s right, we may be just months away from a historic rally that redefines the global monetary order.

The Setup: Déjà Vu from 2008

In the interview, Vermeulen compared today’s charts to those seen right before the 2008 financial crisis. Back then, gold briefly dipped as the S&P 500 hit record highs—only to explode upward when equities crashed.

Today’s patterns are eerily similar:

• Gold: Pulling back after a parabolic run, shaking out “late chasers.”

• S&P 500: Flashing red bars at all-time highs—signs of exhaustion.

• Investor sentiment: Herding back into precious metals after years of neglect.

According to Vermeulen, these are the early tremors of a financial quake. “Every financial reset has its own trigger,” he warned, “but the patterns rhyme.”

The Mechanics of the Move: Why $5,100 Is in Play

Using Fibonacci extensions and historical analogs, Vermeulen outlined a technical roadmap:

• Gold’s next “leg up” could carry it from roughly $4,000 to $5,100—a 25–30% rise.

• Silver, platinum, and palladium are likely to follow, fueled by momentum traders and retail inflows.

• Gold miners may lag as equities weaken, but physical metals will lead the charge.

Vermeulen believes once the rally begins, it could unfold “swiftly and fluidly”—just a few monthly green bars could send gold screaming past $5,000.

The Stock Market’s Role: Fuel or Fuse

Vermeulen’s thesis rests on one key relationship: the inverse flow between equities and gold.
When the stock market stumbles, capital doesn’t vanish—it moves. And increasingly, it’s flowing toward tangible, inflation-resistant assets.

“The turbo boost for gold,” he explained, “comes when stocks roll over and investors flee for safety.”

With the Magnificent Seven masking broader market weakness and AI hype reaching unsustainable valuations, Vermeulen warns that Wall Street’s “final chapter” could soon close—triggering another mass rotation into hard assets.

The Broader Warning: A Financial Reset Looms

As the interview closed, Daniela pressed Vermeulen on his long-term thesis—a looming global reset.

He didn’t hesitate:

• Gold is entering its bull phase.

• The stock market is topping out.

• AI and tech bubbles are inflating unsustainably.

When confidence in fiat currencies and momentum stocks finally breaks, gold will be the last asset standing.

Vermeulen cautioned: “We don’t know what the catalyst will be—but gold is warning us something big is coming.”

Why Physical Gold and Silver Matter Now

History is clear: when paper assets falter, tangible assets preserve wealth.
In every modern crisis—from 1971 to 2008 to 2020—those holding physical gold and silver stood on the right side of the reset.

• Gold vs. Dollar: As fiat purchasing power erodes, gold remains immutable.

• Wealth Preservation: Physical metals are outside the system—no counterparty risk, no “paper promises.”

• Inflation Hedge: Central banks keep printing; gold keeps performing.

Whether Vermeulen’s $5,100 target hits this year or next, his message is unmistakable:
This bull market is real—and it’s just getting started.

Conclusion

Gold’s pullback isn’t weakness—it’s the pause before the breakout.
If Vermeulen’s projections prove right, the coming months could mark a decisive turn in financial history, as capital flees from overvalued paper markets toward real, tangible wealth.

As always, Daniela Cambone cuts through the noise—bringing clarity to a moment when few dare to question the system. The charts are speaking. Gold is warning.
