Gold industry sees prices rising to $2 941/oz over 12 months
MIAMI - The price of gold is expected to rise to $2 941 a troy ounce over the next 12 months from the current $2 661, delegates to the London Bullion Market Association's annual gathering predicted on Tuesday.
A poll of delegates at the LBMA conference in Miami also predicted higher prices in a year's time for silver, platinum and palladium.
Spot gold prices are up 29% so far this year, heading for the biggest annual gain in 14 years, amid the start of US Federal Reserve interest rate cuts and geopolitical tensions. The spot price hit a record $2 685.42 per ounce on September 26.
Delegates from around the world also predicted that silver prices would jump to $45 per ounce in a year's time from around $31.46 on Tuesday. Silver prices are up 32% so far this year. Silver touched a record high of $49 per ounce in 2011.
They forecast that platinum prices XPT= would climb to $1,148 from the current $984 and palladium would edge up to $1 059 from around $1 012.
