Gold prices continue to set new records due to the uncertainties in global markets. As expectations for additional interest rate cuts in the U.S. strengthen and U.S.-China trade tensions flare up again, the demand for safe havens among investors has increased, with gold reaching nearly 4,200 dollars on Wednesday.
GOLD CANNOT BE STOPPED
At the beginning of the week, gold surpassed 4,100 dollars, and on Tuesday, it rose to 4,179 dollars, reaching an all-time high. Meanwhile, gram gold broke a new record by exceeding the critical threshold of 5,500 TL and rising above 5,600 TL.
UPDATED GOLD PRICES AS OF OCTOBER 15
Gold started the day at 4,144 dollars. During the day, the lowest level observed was 4,140 dollars, and the highest was 4,190 dollars. Currently, it is trading at 4,187 dollars.
Gram gold opened at 5,569 TL. Throughout the day, the lowest level was 5,569 TL, and the highest was 5,636 TL. Currently, it is trading at 5,633 TL.
INCREASED BY 59.5% SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR
The increase in gold's value since the beginning of the year has reached 59.5%. This strong rise has been influenced by geopolitical and economic risks, signals of interest rate cuts from the U.S. Federal Reserve, purchases by central banks, the weak performance of the dollar, and fund inflows.
NEW GOLD FORECASTS FROM MAJOR BANKS
Global financial giants Bank of America and Societe Generale predict that gold could exceed 5,000 dollars by 2026. Standard Chartered has revised its average gold price forecast for 2026 to 4,488 dollars.
CEASEFIRE IN GAZA BUT THE RISE CONTINUES
Despite the ceasefire achieved in Gaza, the upward momentum in gold prices has not stopped. Experts indicate that although an increase in risk appetite is expected after the end of the war, the announcement of new tariffs by the U.S. on China has prevented a drop in prices.
