Gold and silver shone bright under the star of 2025. Those who invested in gold and silver reaped significant rewards in 2025. But what will be the winning investment tool of 2026? Citizens looking to invest are researching the prices of gold, silver, and other precious metals. Amidst this, a critical statement came from Finance Analyst Islam Memiş. Memiş shed light on the trajectory of gold and silver in 2026.
Those who invested in gold and silver reaped significant profits in 2025. Throughout the year, gold and silver, setting new records, have left people wondering about their fate in 2026. Citizens seeking new investment avenues in the new year are researching the prices of precious metals. The answer to the question, 'What should be invested in 2026?' came from Finance Analyst Islam Memiş.
Financial Analyst Islam Memiş revealed how much gold and silver yielded in 2025 with the following words:
'The year 2025 was generally a good one for precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum, and copper. On the gold front, there was a 110% increase in value; on the silver front, there was a 200% increase. Silver ended the year in first place, dethroning gold.
In the medium and long term, silver seems to hold more promise than gold.'
Islam Memiş made predictions about the course of gold and silver in 2026. Providing figures for gold and silver, Memiş stated the following:
'We continue to anticipate an upward trend for the first half of 2026. Our initial target for gold per gram during the summer months will be 8,000 TL. On the silver per gram front, we have set a target of 120 TL. The tide could turn for precious metals in the second half of the year. Therefore, those who have accumulated gold and silver so far and are in need of cash should take advantage of the first half of this year.
Profit sales in January will provide an opportunity for those planning to buy gold. These opportunities should be seized.
When gold dips below the 6,000 TL level, it should be bought. Now is the time to buy. We anticipate the continuation of downward trends in gold sales or technical corrections in 2026. In the medium term, we expect this rise in gold and silver to continue.
The first half of 2026 should be viewed as a period of increase, and the second half as a period of decrease. One should not place too much reliance on gold and silver in 2026. We will see a period of rest, decline, and stagnation.'
