Global price shock: Bank of America projects silver could quadruple and gold climb by a third by Christmas 2026 amid geopolitical and inflationary pressures. Eurozone inflation strain: Fuel-driven price rises keep inflation above ECB targets, raising the prospect of further interest rate hikes. ### Related Stocks - [NEM.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NEM.US.md) - [600489.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/600489.CN.md) - [600547.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/600547.CN.md) - [AEM.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AEM.US.md) - [601899.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/601899.CN.md) - [KGC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/KGC.US.md) - [RING.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/RING.US.md) - [PICK.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PICK.US.md) - [SIL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SIL.US.md) - [516650.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/516650.CN.md) - [GLDM.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GLDM.US.md) - [PSLV.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PSLV.US.md) - [GOEX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOEX.US.md) - [JNUG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/JNUG.US.md) - [GDX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GDX.US.md) - [02824.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/02824.HK.md) - [512400.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/512400.CN.md) - [AGQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AGQ.US.md) - [09824.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09824.HK.md) - [SLVP.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SLVP.US.md) - [159876.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/159876.CN.md) - [SGOL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SGOL.US.md) - [DUST.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/DUST.US.md) - [GDXW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GDXW.US.md) - [UGL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/UGL.US.md) - [SIVR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SIVR.US.md) - [SGDM.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SGDM.US.md) - [GDXU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GDXU.US.md) - [561330.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/561330.CN.md) - [ZSL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ZSL.US.md) - [GOAU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOAU.US.md) - [IAU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IAU.US.md) - [159871.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/159871.CN.md) - [GLD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GLD.US.md) - [SLV.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SLV.US.md) - [SLVR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SLVR.US.md) - [GLTR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GLTR.US.md) - [159562.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/159562.CN.md) - [82824.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/82824.HK.md) - [02840.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/02840.HK.md) - [GBUG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GBUG.US.md) - [JDST.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/JDST.US.md) - [XME.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/XME.US.md) - [USLV.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/USLV.US.md) - [GDXY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GDXY.US.md) - [GDXJ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GDXJ.US.md) - [UGLD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/UGLD.US.md) - [DBP.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/DBP.US.md) - [518850.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/518850.CN.md) - [SGDJ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SGDJ.US.md) - [03081.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03081.HK.md) - [NUGT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NUGT.US.md) - [BAC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC.US.md) - [BAC-Q.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-Q.US.md) - [BML-L.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BML-L.US.md) - [BAC-L.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-L.US.md) - [BAC-K.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-K.US.md) - [BML-H.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BML-H.US.md) - [BAC-N.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-N.US.md) - [BAC-E.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-E.US.md) - [MER-K.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MER-K.US.md) - [BAC-O.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-O.US.md) - [BML-G.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BML-G.US.md) - [BAC-M.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-M.US.md) - [BAC-B.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-B.US.md) - [BML-J.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BML-J.US.md) - [BAC-S.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-S.US.md) - [BAC-P.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BAC-P.US.md) - [8648.JP](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/8648.JP.md) ## Related News & Research - [PRECIOUS-Gold retreats but poised to end best month since February](https://longbridge.com/en/news/294544166.md) - [PRECIOUS-Gold rises 2% as Fed holds rates steady, markets parse Warsh's comments](https://longbridge.com/en/news/294251861.md) - [PRECIOUS-Gold ticks higher as markets brace for Fed decision](https://longbridge.com/en/news/294182322.md) - [REG - Golden Prospect Prec Golden Prospect-GPSS - Monthly Investor Report - June 2026](https://longbridge.com/en/news/294225126.md) - [PRECIOUS-Gold falls 2% as Middle East tensions fuel inflation fears, rate-hike bets](https://longbridge.com/en/news/293627992.md)
