[Yardeni Research Raises Gold Price Forecast: $6,000 by 2026, $10,000 by 2029] Odaily Planet Daily News – On the last full trading day before the Christmas holiday, U.S. stocks are expected to close flat despite a relatively data-heavy day. Independent investment research firm Yardeni Research, founded by Wall Street veteran and seasoned strategist Ed Yardeni, has just raised its gold price target for next year. The firm stated: 'At the beginning of this year, when gold prices surpassed $3,000 per ounce, we predicted it would reach $4,000 by year-end and $5,000 by the end of next year. As gold prices break through $4,500, we are raising our target for the end of 2026 to $6,000, and we still expect gold prices to reach $10,000 by the end of this decade (2029).' (Jin10)
