Some investors believe that the price of gold will continue to rise over the next few months and could possibly reach the $2,000 level by the end of the year. They attribute a weakened U.S. dollar, possible Federal Reserve interest-rate cuts in the near future, and the recent trade wars to gold’s recent price increase.

So what does this mean for the average fine jewelry consumer? Well, if you’re planning on buying any gold jewelry in the near future, you may want to consider purchasing it now instead of waiting. Doing so could save you some money. Also, if you have any gold jewelry that you no longer want or wear, now would be a good time to trade in your gold and earn a little extra cash.
