Heraeus, a well-known company in the precious metals industry, released the 2026 precious metals price forecast report. Regarding the 2026 precious metals price trend, Heraeus Precious Metals believes that the prices of gold, silver and platinum group metals are likely to show a downward trend in the first half of 2026. The previous rise had pushed gold and silver to historic highs, and also caused the price of platinum group metals to reach new highs for many years, but the increase was too fast and too high. Although prices are likely to rise in the short term, once momentum weakens, precious metals prices are expected to consolidate. Key factors such as continued central bank purchases, continued inflation, and lower real interest rates may support prices. However, weak industrial demand and the risk of recession are putting significant downward pressure on platinum group metals.
