The forecast for 2026 was announced.
World gold prices have stabilized after three days of growth, which was supported by the prospect of further easing of monetary policy in the United States.
This is reported by Bloomberg.
According to experts, the price of gold is up more than 60 percent this year and silver prices have more than doubled, with both metals on track for their highest annual rates since 1979.
The surge has been fueled by increased buying by central banks and investors moving away from sovereign bonds and currencies. Bullion prices hovered around $4,270 an ounce after rising 1.2 percent on Thursday.
"Gold price growth is expected to continue into 2026 as solid demand from central banks, coupled with accommodative policies and ongoing geopolitical tensions, provide solid macroeconomic support," said Hebe Chen, senior market analyst at Vantage Markets in Melbourne.
The volume of assets in gold-backed exchange-traded funds has risen every month this year except May, according to the World Gold Council.
The price of silver, meanwhile, has strengthened in recent weeks on rising demand as well as tensions in major trading centers. The metal hit a record high of $64.3120 an ounce on Thursday. Platinum also declined slightly on global exchanges, while palladium rose.
