Gold Price Forecast
World gold prices received support at the end of the week when the USD index decreased. Recorded at 5:00 p.m. on December 22, the US Dollar Index, which measures the greenback's fluctuations against 6 major currencies, was at 107.350 points (down 0.74%).
Many experts predict that gold prices will reach $3,000/ounce next year, but this increase is expected to only occur in the second half of 2025. Meanwhile, with current prices hovering around $2,650/ounce, next year's target would be equivalent to an increase of about 13%, much lower than the nearly 30% increase this year.
In a recent interview with Kitco News, Chantele Schieven, Head of Research at Capitalight Research, said that the gold market is in a “wait and see” mode, as investors assess the health of the economy amid uncontrollable inflation.
At the same time, markets are also weighing geopolitical risks and uncertainties as President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office.
Although gold prices have been sideways since peaking in late October, Schieven said the market has remained stable despite major headwinds.
Meanwhile, Bank of America (BofA) forecasts that gold prices will continue to move sideways in the first half of 2024, although they expect prices to surpass the $3,000 threshold.
“The market is in a state where there is nothing concrete to attract investors back,” Michael Widmer, managing director/head of metals research at BofA, said at the bank’s annual outlook conference.
Gold is facing major challenges, in part because Western investors are facing potentially higher bond yields and a stronger US dollar, according to BofA's outlook report.
Analysts at the World Gold Council (WGC) believe that the gold market in 2025 will be more complicated as investors assess the health of the global economy. However, factors such as central bank demand, high inflation, and geopolitical uncertainty will continue to support gold prices.
