In the world of finance, predictions for the future are always a topic of interest. One such prediction that has caught the attention of many is Goldman Sachs' forecast for gold prices in 2026.
According to Goldman Sachs, the price of gold per ounce is expected to rise significantly, with a predicted range of around USD 4000 (approximately Rs 1,25,000 per 10g) by mid-2026. This forecast is influenced by multiple factors, including economic and geopolitical risks.

Goldman Sachs has also suggested that if economic and geopolitical risks were to increase further, the gold prices could range between USD 4500 and USD 5000 per ounce in 2026, potentially leading to a 50% rally in gold prices.
