VanEck is bullish on gold (XAUUSD:CUR) as the exchange traded fund issuer makes the case for gold to reach $2,075/oz.

At the moment, the precious metal trades near the $1,956/oz level which indicates that if VanEck were to be correct, gold has roughly a topside potential gain of roughly 6% from the current market price.

“Geopolitical tensions, lower U.S. dollar exposure in EM and a possible U.S. recession drive our gold price target. We make the case for gold reaching $2,075 and maintaining a higher floor price,” VanEck stated in a recent investor note.

The ETF issue also highlighted that the $2,075/oz marker is a technical level that has been retested multiple times. First was during the 2020 COVID-19 outbreak, next was the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, and thirdly was the retested level in early 2023 with Silicon Valley Bank collapse.

See below the technical chart where gold looks to attempt to break out to the top side.
