Gold Price Forecast

World gold prices increased slightly in the context of the USD index decreasing. Recorded at 7:35 p.m. on January 20, the US Dollar Index, which measures the fluctuations of the greenback against 6 major currencies, was at 108.940 points (down 0.24%).

Gold prices are facing a positive outlook as economic and geopolitical factors continue to support the precious metal's upward momentum. In an interview with Kitco News, Dr. Nomi Prins - geo-economic expert, author of the book "Permanent Distortion: How Financial Markets Abandoned the Real Economy Forever" - gave an optimistic assessment of the trend of gold.

Prins believes that gold prices are likely to rise sharply in 2025, with an expected peak of up to $4,000 an ounce. According to her, demand for gold from central banks around the world is one of the main factors driving the increase.

“Gold is a physical asset and is outside the control of any financial or monetary system established by humans. You cannot print or create it,” she stressed.

As the global economy faces many uncertainties, central banks have increased their gold purchases to protect assets against risks such as inflation and rising public debt.

In addition to its role as a hedge against inflation, gold is also seen as a safe haven during economic and geopolitical turmoil.
