Gold's remarkable performance in 2025 is projected to continue into 2026, according to a report by financial advisory firm PL Capital. With prices up over 60% this year, gold remains a favored asset class amid persistent global demand, high ETF inflows, and ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties.
Silver has also attracted significant attention, outperforming gold with a rise exceeding 100% in 2025. This surge is attributed to a robust industrial demand supercycle encompassing sectors like solar PV, EV batteries, semiconductors, and power electronics, leading to a structural supply deficit and reinforcing a positive outlook for 2026.
India's economic landscape is buoyed by the Reserve Bank's recent interest rate cut to 5.25%, coupled with low inflation and improved GDP prospects. The country's stock markets, particularly Sensex and Nifty, have risen by 8-9% in 2026, supported by broadening earnings across various sectors including consumption and finance.
