📈 Gold’s Biggest Gain Since 1979 — Set to Glitter in 2026
Gold prices soared in 2025, notching the largest annual jump since the 1979 oil crisis with bullion doubling over the past two years. Analysts now see gold potentially hitting $5,000 per troy ounce next year as central bank demand, geopolitical risk and portfolio diversification drive continued interest.

• 🪙 Record rally: Spot gold hit ~$4,381/oz in October 2025 — the highest in history.

• 📊 Top projections: JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley & Metals Focus forecast gold above $4,500–$5,000 in 2026.

• 📈 Major drivers: Central bank buying, weak U.S. dollar policy, geopolitical tension (e.g., Russia‑Ukraine) and U.S. fiscal deficits.

• 🏦 Investor change: Gold’s share of total assets under management has nearly doubled since pre‑2022 levels.

• 🔁 Strong demand cycle: Central bank & institutional buying likely to stay elevated in
“Gold’s valuation is supported much higher than before because of sustained central bank purchases and safe‑haven positioning — setting up a multi‑year critical asset rally rather than just a short‑term hedge.
