Bisnis.com, JAKARTA — Global investment heavyweights are increasingly aligned in their bullish outlook on gold, with a convergence of macroeconomic, monetary, and geopolitical factors reinforcing expectations for further gains through 2026.

BlackRock Inc. recently reiterated its optimistic stance on gold’s forward prospects, with the precious metal poised to gain further luster amid a confluence of supportive factors.

Bisnis.com, JAKARTA— Gold prices are expected to remain on an uptrend in the final week of 2025 and into early 2026, supported by strengthening safe-haven demand, escalating geopolitical risks, and expectations of interest-rate cuts by the US Federal Reserve.

Commodity and currency analyst Ibrahim Assuaibi said spot gold last closed at US$4,531 per troy ounce, while domestic gold prices stood at around Rp2.62 million per gram. He noted that price movements toward the end of the year may remain volatile, but the overall bias still favors gains.
