While profit-taking and pullbacks in the gold market since the beginning of the week are being monitored, Gold and Money Markets Expert Mehmet Ali Yıldırımtürk emphasized that the long-term direction is upward. Stating that the corrections are temporary and offer a "buying opportunity," Yıldırımtürk shared his record forecast, noting that the gram gold could reach the 11,000 TL level by the end of the year.
After record levels were seen in the gold market at the beginning of the week, profit-taking and the pullback that began raised question marks in investors' minds. Gold and Money Markets Expert Mehmet Ali Yıldırımtürk, who evaluated the decline of spot gold from the $4,450 level and the retreat of gram gold to the 6,730 TL band, stated that the movement was a correction, not a trend change, and announced his year-end expectations.
Amid geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, the uncertainty of a ceasefire on the US-Iran line, and the shadow of the US military steps in the Gulf, gold prices are experiencing volatile days. The expert name Mehmet Ali Yıldırımtürk, who evaluated on Habertürk TV the retreat of spot gold from $4,450 to $4,300 levels and gram gold from the 6,800 TL limit to around 6,730 TL, gave important warnings to investors.
"DECLINES COULD BE A BUYING OPPORTUNITY"
Describing the pullback in spot gold as a natural profit-taking following the rally, Yıldırımtürk pointed to the critical technical levels to be followed: "If $4,385 is surpassed, we will see $4,400 again, but on declines, the $4,300 and even $4,250 levels are quite important. Declines to these levels can be considered a buying opportunity."
YEAR-END TARGET 11,000 TL
Mehmet Ali Yıldırımtürk, emphasizing that gram gold will maintain its place in the upward channel as long as it holds above the 6,500 - 6,600 TL band, stated that they have not changed their medium and long-term forecasts. The expert, explaining future expectations with numbers, made the following predictions:
- Near-term target: As long as gram gold remains above 6,500 - 6,600 TL, levels of 7,200 - 7,500 TL will come to the agenda in the near term.
- Year-end gram gold expectation: The target for gram gold on a TL basis is maintained in the 10,000 - 11,000 TL range for the year-end.
- Year-end spot gold expectation: On the spot side, levels of $5,600 - $6,000 are expected to be seen towards the end of the year.
