Amundi believes that gold and commodities are good hedges against inflation risks, infrastructure and private debt provide stable cashflows. With gains of roughly 25 per cent in the current year, Vedda highlighted that gold is one of the top performers. The reasons: lasting geopolitical uncertainties, the waning trust in the dollar, globally-rising liquidity and a lasting demand from central banks. This constellation is expected to stay around. For this reason, Vedda raised his price target again, forecasting a price of $3,750 per ounce by June 2026.
