According to Reuters, long-term optimism remains unwavering. Despite recent gold price volatility, analysts assert that the market is strongly supported by global geopolitical tensions and expectations that the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) will ease monetary policy, weakening the USD.
Major financial institutions like HSBC, Bank of America, and Société Générale share similar views, predicting gold prices will reach $5,000 per ounce by 2026. UK-based research firm Metals Focus even forecasts gold hitting $5,000 and silver reaching $60 as early as next year.
However, not all organizations are optimistic. The World Bank predicts gold prices will only rise by about 5% next year, while Natixis expects average prices in 2026 to hover around $3,800 per ounce.
