Gold is advancing for a 12th consecutive year and will average $1,900 an ounce in the fourth quarter, the analysts predict. Prices slid more than 7 percent in the past month as signs that U.S. growth is accelerating pared investors' expectations the Federal Reserve will buy more debt. The central bank bought $2.3 trillion of debt in two rounds of quantitative easing that ended in June 2011, during which gold appreciated about 70 percent.
Silver is headed for its best quarter in a year, and will average $36 an ounce in the final three months, the forecasts compiled by Bloomberg show. Holdings fell by more than 800 tons in 2011, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Investors may buy 2,000 tons through ETPs this year, Morgan Stanley predicts.
