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.

Revolut Eyes Valuation Surge Ahead Of Public Debut

IPO Targets And Strategic Growth

British neobank Revolut is targeting a valuation of $150 billion to $200 billion ahead of a potential initial public offering, according to sources cited by the Financial Times. The планы follow the company’s recent progress in securing a full banking license in the United Kingdom, a key step in strengthening its regulatory position.

Robust Financial Momentum

Recent transactions highlight a sharp increase in valuation. A secondary share sale lifted Revolut’s valuation from $45 billion in 2024 to $75 billion, positioning it among Europe’s most valuable fintech companies. CEO and co-founder Nik Storonsky has indicated that an IPO is unlikely in the near term, with a timeline of at least two years. Market expectations point to another secondary sale in the second half of 2026, which could push valuation beyond $100 billion.

Scaling Revenue And Customer Base

Growth in core metrics remains strong. Revolut reported revenue of $6 billion for the year ending December 2025, up from $4 billion in 2024. Net profit increased to $1.7 billion from $1 billion over the same period. The customer base expanded to 68.3 million retail users, reflecting continued adoption across key markets.

Global Expansion And Licensing Milestones

Founded in 2015, Revolut has expanded beyond payments into multi-currency accounts, transfers, crypto services, and insurance products. Operations now span multiple regions, supported by banking licenses in the United Kingdom and the European Union. Expansion into markets such as Australia, Japan, Singapore, Brazil, the United States, and India reflects an ongoing international growth strategy. The company has also applied for a U.S. banking license, while upcoming launches in Colombia and Mexico further extend its geographic footprint.

Outlook For The Future

While the company has not confirmed IPO plans, valuation growth, rising revenues, and expanding global operations indicate continued momentum. Investor focus is likely to center on regulatory progress, profitability, and the ability to sustain growth ahead of a potential public listing.
