Hot High Tech Stocks To Own Right Now


With six catalysts driving the gold price forecast, the yellow metal should easily eclipse its all-time high of $1,895 within the next few years.

That’s a 53% gain from the current gold price of $1,236 an ounce.

While one or two strong catalysts can be enough to drive an investment higher, multiple catalysts increase the likelihood of truly monster gains.

“The more catalysts you have, the bigger bang for the buck,” said Money Morning Executive Editor William Patalon, III.

Patalon, who writes often about gold investing in his Private Briefing newsletter, says we’re witnessing an unusual confluence of no less than six gold price catalysts right now.

Finisar (NASDAQ:FNSR), Zumiez (NASDAQ:ZUMZ), and Winnebago Industries (NYSE:WGO) were among the worst performers on the day. Below, we’ll look more closely at these stocks to tell you why they did so poorly.
