Goldman Sachs Predicts Gold Prices To Surge To $3,700 By Late 2025

In a bold forecast, Goldman Sachs has increased its gold price prediction to $3,700 per ounce by the end of 2025. This adjustment comes amid unexpected demand from central banks and a strengthening perception of recession risks, drawing investors towards gold ETFs.

Key Points

  • Initial forecasts pegged the price at $3,300, but central banks’ monthly gold acquisitions, averaging 80 tons — much higher than the 17-ton average before 2022 — have warranted a forecast revision.
  • Gold prices have already seen a significant increase of over 23% in 2025, surpassing the $3,200 mark for the first time.
  • Should central banks continue acquiring at an accelerated pace, or if a recession prompts a capital influx into ETFs, gold could rise to $3,880 within this year.

What To Watch

Economists estimate a 45% chance of a U.S. recession within 12 months, potentially redirecting capital to gold ETFs. Should central banks ramp up purchases to 100 tons monthly, or recession-driven demand persist, gold might reach $3,880 by year-end. Alternatively, if economies show resilience and political uncertainty lessens, gold prices could stabilize around $3,550.

Nvidia Paves The Way For Orbital Data Centers In Space Computing Revolution

Nvidia introduced computing platforms designed for orbital data centers during its GTC 2026 conference. The systems are intended to support artificial intelligence workloads in space-based environments. CEO Jensen Huang said the development reflects a shift toward processing data closer to where it is generated, including in orbit

Redefining The Final Frontier Of Computing

During the keynote, Huang said satellite networks are expanding rapidly, increasing the need for computing infrastructure beyond Earth. He stated that AI systems may need to operate directly within space-based data environments. These developments are linked to the growth of satellite constellations and space-based data collection.

Innovative Modules And Strategic Partnerships

Nvidia introduced the Vera Rubin Space-1 module, which combines IGX Thor and Jetson Orin processors adapted for space conditions. The hardware is designed to operate within constraints related to size, weight and power.

The company said it is working with partners including Axiom Space, Planet Labs and Starcloud on related initiatives.

Overcoming Engineering Challenges

Huang noted that cooling systems remain a key technical challenge in space environments. Heat dissipation differs from Earth-based systems, as cooling relies on radiation rather than convection. These constraints require adjustments in hardware design for orbital use.

Expanding The Scope Of AI And Data Centers

The initiative comes as energy consumption and operating costs increase for terrestrial data centers. Space-based systems could rely on solar energy, which remains more consistently available in orbit.  Companies, including Google and SpaceX are also exploring concepts related to space-based infrastructure and AI systems.

Looking Ahead

As orbital data centers inch closer to reality, the integration of space computing into AI infrastructure represents a transformative leap for technology. Nvidia’s bold vision underscores an industry-wide shift, promising to expand the capabilities of digital infrastructure even beyond the confines of Earth.
