Gold Faces Near-Term Correction Amid Mixed Forecasts for Longer-Term Rally
Gold prices face mixed forecasts as the World Gold Council warns of a potential 37% decline from January highs if support at USD 3,857 per ounce breaks, with a possible floor near USD 3,500. Conversely, Motilal Oswal Financial Services projects a near-term correction of 6-8% before gold rallies to USD 5,500 over 12-15 months, recommending staggered accumulation amid shifting geopolitical and economic factors. A stronger Japanese yen and US dollar trends also influence gold's outlook.
