Gold is and remains a safe investment

As the flight to safe investments continues to drive investors toward gold in 2026, higher gold prices are possible. Yields are falling, geopolitical pressure appears to be continuing, and so the price of the precious metal should continue to receive tailwinds. Should demand for gold weaken in the technology and jewelry sectors, strong investment demand, for example via gold ETFs, will still provide support.

In 2025, gold ETFs absorbed more than 800 tons of gold, which had a strong upward effect on prices. From 2021 to 2023, gold ETFs experienced outflows. In 2024, there was a trend reversal, and from 2025 onwards, gold ETFs boomed. Compared to 2024, inflows amounted to US$3.7 billion, while in 2025 they reached US$88.6 billion.

Rising gold prices have attracted investors rather than deterred them. Central banks reacted similarly, increasing their gold reserves in 2025. After all, it is not only investors who want diversification and stability. Central bank gold purchases were well above average, even if they did not reach the record levels of the last three years. If general conditions continue, gold should at least trend sideways. There can always be surprises, both good and bad for the gold price. If interest rates continue to fall and economic growth fails to really take off, the outlook for higher gold prices looks good. Especially if there is an economic downturn.
