Current data:

Price: $5093 (peak), then correction to $5063.
Growth: +17% since the beginning of 2026, +64% in 2025.

The situation in Turkey:

A gram of gold exceeded 7,100 lira.
At the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul: 1 gram — 7234 lira.

The growth of other metals:

Silver: $109.45 (maximum, +6.6%).
Platinum: $2,857.41 (+3.26%).

Reasons for growth:
Investors are looking for a "safe haven" against the background of:

Tensions around Greenland.
Threats of a trade war (Trump's statements on duties for Canada).

Expert's forecast (Islam Memish):

The trend is supported by central banks reducing dependence on the dollar.
If gold holds $5,000, the next target is $5,500.
In Turkey: 8000 liras/gram is possible in the first half of 2026.

An important caveat:

Corrections are possible (gold support is at $4,850).
Purchases are not recommended this week, as profit—taking is likely.
