📈 Gold Prices Jump on Geopolitical Risk
• Gold surged to fresh multi-week highs around $5,370–$5,380 per ounce after U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran and subsequent regional escalation drove safe-haven flows into bullion. 
• Resilient demand across global markets — from futures, physical bullion, and ETFs — is keeping price momentum strong amid uncertainty. 
📊 Analyst Forecasts Point Higher
• Major banks including Bank of America have boosted gold price targets near $6,000/oz for 2026, citing continued policy risk, inflation concerns, and shifting global reserve strategies. 
• Some market analysts tie gold’s strength to risks in other assets like Bitcoin, reinforcing the narrative of gold as a defensive play. #XUSDonBinance #AnthropicUSGovClash #GoldSilverOilSurge #BlockAILayoffs
