At the end of 2025, gold reached $4.2 thousand per ounce, a 57% increase over the year. KIT Group analysts explain this by the Fed's policy, the geopolitical situation, and central bank demand. According to them, if the Fed cuts the rate again in December, the price of the metal could reach a new level – $4.3–4.35 thousand per ounce. Referring to World Gold Council data, KIT Group predicts that a favorable environment could lead to a further 5–15% increase in gold prices next year.
