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

by News Editor

April 15, 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.

Apple Introduces Monthly Subscription With 12-Month Commitment

April 28, 2026

Apple introduced a subscription option for App Store developers that allows lower monthly pricing in exchange for a 12-month commitment. The model provides users with discounted monthly rates while securing a defined revenue period for developers.

Innovative Subscription Strategy

The new option enables users to pay monthly while committing to a full year of service. This approach reflects existing practices where developers present annual subscriptions through lower equivalent monthly pricing. By standardizing this structure, Apple formalizes how these offers are displayed and communicated within the App Store.

Enhanced Transparency And Consumer Control

Users are provided with detailed information on payment structure and cancellation terms before subscribing. While subscriptions can be canceled at any time, monthly charges continue until the end of the 12-month term. Apple displays the number of completed and remaining payments within the user account interface and sends reminder notifications ahead of renewal dates.

Strategic Rollout Considerations

The subscription option will not be available at launch in the United States and Singapore. In the United States, ongoing legal proceedings involving Epic Games affect the implementation of subscription policies. Regulatory and market factors may also influence the timing of rollout in Singapore.

Developer Integration And Future Outlook

Developers can configure the new subscription type in App Store Connect and test it using Xcode. The feature will be available globally on devices running iOS 26.4, iPadOS 26.4, macOS Tahoe 26.4, tvOS 26.4, and visionOS 26.4. Additional updates to version 26.5 are scheduled for May across these platforms.
