Several key factors have prompted major financial institutions to revise their gold forecasts upward. Notably, Citigroup raised its three-month price target for gold 3,150 to 3,500 per ounce. This upward revision reflects rising risks, including U.S. protectionist policies, budgetary concerns, and ongoing geopolitical conflicts in regions such as Ukraine and the Middle East.
Gold prices declined at the start of the week, retreating recent gains after U.S. President Donald Trump announced an extension of the deadline for reaching a trade agreement with the European Union to July 9. This decision effectively postponed his earlier threat to impose a 50% tariff on EU imports starting June 1.
The United Kingdom experienced a sharper-than-expected rise in annual inflation in April, with the rate climbing to 3.5%, up 2.6% in March. This marks the highest reading since January 2024 and reflects growing cost-of-living pressures, according to the Office for National Statistics ONS.

The upward movement was driven by a weaker U.S. dollar and increased investor demand for safe-haven assets amid ongoing financial uncertainty in the United States, lawmakers are debating a comprehensive tax reform bill
