Expect Gold To Climb Higher In 2026
We believe the current macroeconomic backdrop is broadly bullish for gold. Several structural and cyclical factors continue to support higher prices over the medium to long term:
Heightened geopolitical uncertainty, which historically drives demand for safe-haven assets.
Sustained central bank buying, as many countries diversify reserves away from fiat currencies.
Persistent inflation concerns, even as headline inflation moderates, keeping gold is attractive as a store of value.
Lower expected real interest rates, reducing the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets like gold.
Ongoing monetary debasement and aggressive quantitative easing, which undermines confidence in paper currencies.
