Quoted from KONTAN.CO.ID - JAKARTA - JAKARTA Gold prices are projected to remain volatile until the end of 2026. In the short term, gold price movements are considered to have not shown a strong signal to re-enter an upward trend, while the direction of United States (US) monetary policy is still one of the important factors that investors need to pay close attention to. Group Head of Operations Syailendra Capital Syanne Gracetinne Polii who is Group Head of Operations said that in the next three to six months, the price of gold has the potential to experience a Short Correction "In a short period of time, maybe around 3 to 6 months, the price of gold either tends to be sideways or a short-term correction," said Syanne in Jakarta, Monday (31/8/2026). Reporting from According to Syanne's view, global factors are one of the factors in the gold price outlook, especially due to US monetary policy. Previously, gold prices experienced a correction of up to 26% during January-June 2026. This correction was the deepest in the last decade. Syanne said the pressure on gold prices during that period was influenced by a number of factors, including changes in leverage rules, investor profit-taking and geopolitical turmoil. These conditions make the space for gold price movements in the short term still quite dynamic. "The development of gold investment through ETFs makes it easier for every investor to gain exposure to gold through a flexible, transparent and structured capital market infrastructure," he added. With the price outlook remaining volatile in the short term, understanding the factors driving prices and the characteristics of investment instruments is important for investors. On the other hand, central bank purchases and the need for portfolio diversification are factors that could support interest in gold in the long term.
