Gold edges higher in early Asian trade. Tariff fears continue to push gold to all-time highs, with an estimated 7% boost to prices coming from trade tensions, the Goldman Sachs commodities research team writes in a note.
There could be modest downside to prices if tariff risks fade and investor positioning normalizes, they say. But sustained central bank buying and falling Fed funds rates will continue to support prices, which could hit $3,000/oz by 2Q 2026, they add.
Spot gold is 0.1% higher at $2,859.45/oz.
