Islam Memish, an expert in gold and currency markets, stated that the expectation for a rise in gold continues and that the price of gold could reach 10,000 lira per gram, while he warned of speculation in silver and urged investors to be cautious.
In 2025, gold and silver prices reached record levels and started 2026 with a rapid rise. The question "What should one invest in?" remains on the agenda, while striking evaluations came from Gold and Currency Markets Expert İslam Memiş. Answering questions from Yaprak Hırka Yıldız on TGRT News live broadcast, Memiş particularly warned gold and silver investors.
EXPECTATIONS FOR GOLD'S RISE CONTINUE
İslam Memiş drew attention to critical levels in gold, stating that the resistance at 4,880 dollars will be closely monitored. He noted that if this level is broken upwards, the 5,020 dollar level could come into play, and he expressed that the expectation for a rise to 8,000 lira in gram gold continues. Memiş emphasized that if uncertainties increase, five-digit figures could also be discussed for gram gold.
WILL GRAM GOLD REACH 10,000 LIRA?
Memiş stated that if the 5,000 dollar level is exceeded in gold, 10,000 lira could be seen in gram gold, but he indicated that this scenario should not be viewed as certain. He mentioned that global uncertainties and stress will continue in the first half of the year, and it would be healthier for investors to focus on quantity rather than price.
CAUTIOUS WARNING FOR SILVER
In his evaluations regarding silver, Memiş said that this investment instrument is riskier compared to gold. He noted that interest in silver has increased recently, but this has created a speculative atmosphere, warning that short-term investors may face disadvantages. Memiş stated that silver is not at a level where it can be purchased again at this stage.
