description: "UBS has lowered its near-term gold price target to $3,850–$4,000, citing pressure from a stronger U.S. dollar and Federal Reserve rate-hike expectations. Gold has entered a bear market, falling over 25% from January's record. Despite the short-term weakness, UBS remains positive on gold for the next year, supported by sustained central bank buying and potential dollar depreciation."
