Global Bank Predicts Continued Pressure on Gold Prices

HSBC has lowered its forecast for the average gold prices in 2026 and 2027, citing the impact of strong US monetary policies and the dollar's strength on the declining prices. The bank expects gold to trade between $3,800 and $4,700 per ounce for the remainder of 2026, ending the year at $4,750, with projections of rising to $5,025 by the end of 2027. Gold has fallen over 20% since its peak in January, due to concerns over inflation, conflicts in the Middle East, and Federal Reserve policies. Despite the downward revision, the bank believes the downside risks for gold are limited, supported by ongoing factors such as fiscal deficits and economic burdens.
