An upside scenario
Lower real rates, safe-haven demand or central-bank purchases could support gold. The impact depends on what markets already expect and have priced in.
A downside or stable scenario
Higher real rates, weaker demand or profit-taking could limit gains or cause losses. EUR outcomes also depend on exchange rates. Scenarios are not guarantees.
What to watch instead of a price target
Compare actual changes in real interest rates, EUR/USD and demand with market expectations. Lower rates do not guarantee higher gold prices if the move was already anticipated. Consider downside risk, selling costs and cash needs in your own plan; these scenarios have no assigned probabilities.
