Peter Schiff Once Asked Bitcoin ‘Fanatics’ To Stop Making Fun Of Gold: ‘Don’t Be The Last One Onboard’

Peter Schiff, chief Economist and global strategist at Euro Pacific Capital, asked Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) "fanatics" to stop making fun of gold based on its market movement in November 2022.

“#Bitcoin fanatics need to stop making fun of #gold's $52 rise, claiming a 3% move is nothing compared to what Bitcoin does. Bitcoin was only up 4% today. Not nearly enough of an extra gain to offset substantially higher risk. The $GDX was up over 10%. The miners are a better bet,” Schiff said in his tweet at the time.

Schiff explained how positive divergences in gold prices indicate the commodity was likely to have witnessed its low in and was headed higher going forward. “#Gold is up over $50 today. Daily gains that large rarely happen. The positive divergences I have been pointing out between #silver and the miners likely mean gold has seen its lows. If so, $50 daily spikes will soon be common. In fact, gold may soon have its first $100 up day,” he said in his tweet on Sunday.

Gold Miner ETFs: In November, Schiff also highlighted his bullish stance on gold miner ETFs saying the rise in prices is likely to be the beginning of a long trend. He advised investors to mind this trend and not be the last one aboard.

“Since the end of Aug. the $GDXJ, an index of junior #gold mining stocks, is up 5.5%. During that same period of time, the NASDAQ was down 11.5%. Lots of investors own big tech. Very few own junior miners. This is likely the beginning of a long trend. Don't be the last one onboard,” he said in his tweet at the time.

The VanEck Gold Miners ETF (NYSE:GDX) closed over 10% higher on Nov. 4, 2022, while the iShares MSCI Global Gold Miners ETF (NASDAQ:RING) closed 9.76% higher on the same day.
