Gold price forecasts have been raised by institutions despite short-term technical weakness, citing persistent US macro risks, central bank demand, and ETF inflows. UBS increased its end-March 2026 forecast to $3,600 per ounce and expects ETF demand to reach nearly 600 metric tons in 2025, the strongest inflows since 2010. Central banks have maintained strong demand, with China adding to its reserve holdings for the ninth straight month. Despite recent price fluctuations, institutions remain optimistic about gold's long-term prospects.
