Do you expect gold prices to keep rising over the next year?

ING Group, the largest banking group in the Netherlands, forecasts gold will average $4,408 per troy ounce in 2026 and $4,375 in 2027. Its commodity market forecasts, dated November 10, 2026, also project silver averaging $69.5 in 2026 and $66.5 in 2027.

Why it matters

Bank commodity forecasts shape expectations among investors, producers and buyers about where precious and industrial metal prices are heading. The projections point to a gradual decline in gold prices across 2027 after the 2026 average.

ING's forecasts put gold at $4,408 per troy ounce in 2026 and $4,375 in 2027, with silver at $69.5 and $66.5 respectively. Copper is projected at $13,370 and $13,550 per ton, and iron ore at $98 and $95 per ton, but the forecasts do not explain the assumptions behind these figures.
