Citi’s 90-day gold warning reflects a world pricing in geopolitical risk

From Washington to Wall Street, and across the geopolitical map of the Middle East, global financial markets are enveloped in an atmosphere of uncertainty. In this climate, Citi’s latest report has redirected investor attention back to precious metals. The U.S.-based financial giant dramatically raised its short-term outlook for gold and silver, issuing a striking “90-day” warning. By setting a 0–3 month target of $5,000 per ounce for gold and $100 for silver, Citi is not merely offering a price forecast, but it is signaling a profound shift in how confidence is perceived in financial markets.
