HSBC has lowered its average gold price forecasts for 2026 and 2027, citing a stronger U.S. dollar and a shift in expectations for a more hawkish U.S. Federal Reserve, according to a Reuters report.
The bank reduced its average gold price forecast for 2026 to $4,560 per ounce from $4,864, while trimming its 2027 forecast to $4,925 from $5,000.
