Gold with a new price record. In 2026, even $ 4,000 per ounce

Gold prices reached a new record level on Monday and exceeded USD 3385 per ounce after the USD rate dropped to the lowest level from the beginning of 2024. In 2026, $ 4,000 is possible per ounce – dealers say.

Gold was 1.8 percent Up to USD 3385.98 per ounce.

Kruszec reached a new maximum, because the weakness of the American dollar, criticism of the Federal Reserve by US President Donald Trump and the constant fears of investors about the increasing trade war strengthened the demand for safe investments.

The US President said on Thursday that if he wanted to, the president of the Federal Reserve Jerome Powell would leave the position very quickly. Once again, he criticized the head of the central bank, claiming that he was guilty of a lowering interest rate.

Trump referred to speculation about the possible release of the head of the Fed during a meeting with the Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Melons. The president assured that he has the right to release Powell.

In turn, on Friday, Kevin Hassett, an advisor to the US President for Economic, said that Donald Trump and his team would continue to analyze the case regarding the possible release of the head of the federal reserve.

“The release of the head of the Fed Jerome Powell would not only undermine the principle of the independence of the central bank, but would also threaten the politicization of American monetary policy in a way that markets consider to be disturbing,” says Christopher Wong, strategist overseea -chinese banking corp.

“If the credibility of the Fed is questioned, this may undermine trust in USD and accelerate capital flows to safe places, including gold,” he adds.

Goldman Sachs analysts forecast that the price of gold in mid -2026 can reach $ 4,000 per ounce.
