Gold below US$4,000 could be part panic, part repricing. Higher real yields and a stronger US dollar are genuine headwinds, so further downside is possible if markets continue pushing back Fed cut expectations. On the other hand, softer oil prices, cooling inflation and renewed rate-cut hopes could eventually revive the bull case.

Rather than waiting for the perfect entry or a reclaim of US$4,000, I'd prefer gradual accumulation. A phased approach reduces timing risk while keeping dry powder if prices fall further. For most investors, SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) offers the best liquidity and convenience, while physical gold suits long-term wealth preservation. I would avoid going all in until the macro outlook becomes clearer.

Gold Breaks Below $4,000! Will We See $3500?
Spot gold breached the key $4,000/oz level on June 24, falling 2.8% intraday — its first close below that threshold since November 2025 — and now sits nearly 30% off its all-time high set in January, entering deep correction territory. Rising Fed rate-hike expectations following Waller's hawkish pivot, and climbing Treasury yields diminish the appeal of non-yielding gold. With $4,000 serving as a critical support line, a sustained break opens further downside. Down nearly 30% and below $4,000 — will you average in on the dip, or wait for peak rate-hike expectations before acting?
