🟡 FT: Gold Set to Extend Historic Rally Into 2026

The Financial Times reports that gold’s historic bull run — which saw prices surge in 2025 — is expected to continue into 2026, although analysts think the pace of gains may moderate as the market digests recent extremes and awaits fresh macro and policy catalysts.

• Gold posted record‑breaking performance in 2025, driven by safe‑haven demand and macro uncertainty.

• Analysts see further upside in 2026, but with slower, steadier gains rather than parabolic moves.

• Critical drivers include central bank policies, inflation expectations, and risk sentiment shifts.

While gold’s spectacular rally may lose some momentum, resilient fundamental support — from geopolitical risks to monetary policy expectations — suggests the metal will remain a preferred hedge and diversifier for investors in 2026.
