4 Big reasons that UBS target US$2850 for gold

UBS says not to be too concerned about record high gold prices and the 30%+ rise so far this year:

• prices will continue to rise in the months ahead

UBS forecast $2850 by mid-2025. In brief, UBS cite gold continuing to benefit from rate cuts:

• Federal Reserve easing cycle is still at an early stage … expect more cuts in 2024 (100bp in total!) & another 100bps in 2025
• Global rate cuts too – China, Canada’, ECB, and more

Politics:

• gold’s political hedging utility could blunt near-term dollar upside risks if former President Donald Trump wins the US election

More:

• Federal Reserve’s rate-cutting cycle driving financial investment demand
• Ongoing central bank buying
