Gold has crept higher in 2017, though it has lagged behind stocks and some other commodities. 去年金价飙升至历史高位之后又回落了13%。2017年黄金价格有所升高，但涨幅仍然落后于股市和其他一些大宗商品。 But some investors, including Pacific Investment Management Co. and hedge-fund managers John Paulson and George Soros are doubling down on gold, while others are trumpeting bullish forecasts. 不过，包括太平洋投资管理公司(Pacific Investment Management Co.，简称Pimco)以及鲍尔森(John Paulson)、索罗斯(George Soros)等对冲基金经理在内的一些投资者正在加倍对黄金进行投资，同时另外一些人也不断发出对黄金的乐观预期。 They cite a continuing threat of financial turmoil in Europe, the prospect of additional U.S. monetary stimulus that could erode the value of the dollar and bolster gold, and the risk that long-dormant inflation could return. 这些人的理由包括：欧洲金融动荡的威胁仍在持续，美国额外的刺激性货币政策可能会使美元贬值并提振金价，以及长期潜伏的通胀重新抬头的风险。 |
