WGC Predicts Gold Price Volatility: Up 15-30% or Down 5-20% by 2026

• World Gold Council (WGC) forecasts gold prices could rise 15-30% by 2026, driven by geopolitical tensions, US interest rate cuts, and safe-haven demand.
• Conversely, prices might fall 5-20% if the US economy strengthens, leading to a stronger dollar and higher US bond yields.
• Significant price declines are considered unlikely as India, Asian markets, and long-term investors tend to buy during dips, providing price support.
• The WGC predicts gold prices will remain volatile until 2026, prompting experts to recommend buying gold in installments.
