Islam Memiş, an expert in gold and currency markets, stated that investors should move away from short-term profit expectations and focus on long-term strategies, suggesting that declines should be seen as buying opportunities.
As the ceasefire between the US and Iran did not yield the desired results, sharp fluctuations were experienced in global markets. While oil prices rose above 100 dollars again, gold and silver started the week with a decline. Following the developments, Gold and Currency Markets Specialist Islam Memiş issued warnings to investors.
“THE PERIOD OF MAKING MONEY FROM MONEY IS OVER”
In his assessment of the current market situation, Memiş stated, “The period of making money from money is over,” and mentioned that manipulations would continue until the end of the year. He emphasized that investors wishing to close this year with a profit should adopt a long-term strategy.
“MARKETS ARE PRICING WAR AGAIN”
Memiş noted that the lack of results from the US-Iran talks directly affected the markets, saying, “Markets have started to price war again. We have entered a period where negative pricing has come to the forefront. Oil rose by 8% to see 106 dollars, currently at the level of 104 dollars. Gold, silver, and other instruments started the week with selling pressure,” he said.
CRITICAL LEVELS FOR GOLD
Stating that the ounce of gold is at the level of 4,730 dollars, Memiş expressed that technically, 4,650 dollars is a strong support level, while 4,900 dollars is a resistance level. The expert indicated that uncertainty continues and that the direction in the market will be shaped according to the flow of news.
“THEY WILL EXTEND THIS PROCESS”
Memiş argued that the fluctuations in the markets are being deliberately extended, stating, “They will extend this process as much as possible. They will continue to profit from the manipulation market,” he said.
CRITICAL THRESHOLDS IN THE STOCK MARKET AND CURRENCY PAIR
Indicating that 12,900 points is a support level and 14,000 points is a resistance level for Borsa Istanbul, Memiş mentioned that the Euro-Dollar parity should be monitored in the range of 1.1480-1.1680.
“THERE ARE GROUPS THAT DO NOT WANT PEACE”
Suggesting that different powers are influential behind the scenes in the markets, Memiş said, “There are big whales behind the scenes. Groups that do not want peace are also affecting the process.”
“INVESTORS SHOULD FOCUS ON LONG TERM”
Memiş stated that investors should move away from short-term profit expectations, saying, “Long-term planning should be made, and declines should be evaluated as buying opportunities. This year is not a year for making money from money.”
