Gold Price Target For 2026 Reprised: Details
According to Rashad Hajiyev, a leading metals expert, gold has the potential and power to hit $8000 by the end of 2026. While explaining the reasoning on X, Hajiyev shared how the gold-to-silver ratio may end up hitting 32 by March 2026. At the same time, this 32GTS may project gold hitting $6K, with silver exploring a $187 price target. Hajiyev went ahead a notch and shared how he thinks the 2026 gold price target may ultimately be $8000 with the GTS potentially hitting 20, while silver ends up claiming a whopping high price of $400.
“The gold-to-silver ratio could reach 32 by March 2026. Gold at $6k and GTS at 32 suggest a $187 silver price. And I do not think 32 is going to be the bottom for GTS and $6k the top for gold. My ultimate gold target for 2026 is 8k with GTS potentially reaching 20, which translates to a $400 silver price. This post is not investment advice…”
