Do You Agree With Goldman's Bearish Call On Gold?

Gold prices surrendered early gains to hit one-month lows on Wednesday as disappointment at its failure to benefit from rising stock markets helped push the metal through key chart levels.

Spot gold fell to a low at $1,687.04 an ounce and was last down 0.7 percent at around $1,685 an ounce. U.S. gold futures were last down 0.2 percent an ounce at $1,692 per ounce.

Goldman Sachs said on Wednesday gold's current price cycle will likely turn next year as a rise in real interest rates on the back of improved growth offsets any further balance sheet expansion from the Federal Reserve.

The bank also cut its 2013 gold forecasts.
