Gold: Precious metals lead lost-decade playbook – TD Securities
TD Securities’ Izidor Flajsman highlights that during historical US equity ‘lost decades’, Precious Metals, especially Gold, have delivered strong real returns while broad Commodities were more mixed. Gold outperformed in both valuation-driven and inflation-shock regimes and TD’s Commodities team now projects Gold at $5100/oz by Q1 2027, implying more than 25% upside from current spot levels.
Gold outperforms across lost decades
"Precious metals led across 'lost decade' regimes, with gold the standout performer."
"Commodities have been the flip side of equities and duration — dead money in a normal regime, best house on the block in a lost decade."
"The catch: based on the data below, this is a precious metals story, not a "commodities" story."
"Gold is the standout (+7.7% ann.) because it works in both regimes."
"Going forward, interestingly, we expect gold to hit $5100/oz in Q1 2027, which is over 25% higher from the current spot."

Bank of America strategists believe that as the market has already heavily bet on the sustained growth of AI-related capital expenditures and the investment logic of discretionary consumer spending being under pressure, it may become increasingly difficult for investors to achieve excess returns in the future by "going long on stocks benefiting from AI capital expenditure and avoiding stocks related to white-collar consumption."
