The investment bank UBS, for example, has raised its benchmark target for gold. The bank now expects a price of US$3,600 (previously US$3,500) per ounce by the end of March 2026 and US$3,700 (an increase of US$200) per ounce by the end of June 2026. The familiar factors, such as de-dollarization, central bank purchases, and geopolitical concerns, continue to drive the price of gold. Trade conflicts and peace efforts between Russia and Ukraine have recently kept the price of gold more in a sideways movement. However, risks and uncertainties in many areas, the debt of the US and other countries, and a weaker US dollar should continue to strengthen and increase the price of gold. Bars, coins, and ETFs are currently enjoying great popularity. Gold has gained importance as an anchor in asset allocation.
In addition, demand for gold is growing faster than supply. Demand for gold is higher than ever. In terms of price, therefore, the end of the road should not yet be in sight. According to the World Gold Council, total demand in the second quarter reached 1,249 tons (including OTC investments), around three percent more than in the same quarter last year. The value of demand reached a record high of US$132 billion. The first half of 2025 was the strongest for bullion and coin investments since 2013. Gold is therefore proving its value as a safe haven. Two consecutive quarters saw the strongest first half for bullion and coin investments since 2013. When investing in stocks, companies with gold in their projects should not be overlooked.
