The World Bank recently released a forecast indicating a significant change in commodity markets by 2026. Commodity prices could fall to their lowest level in six years due to global uncertainties and weak economic growth. The energy and food markets are particularly affected, while precious metals such as gold and silver could increase in value.
An oversupply of oil can be observed in the energy sector, which contributes significantly to falling prices. China, as one of the largest consumers, is seeing stagnating consumption while interest in electric and hybrid vehicles is increasing. This development could help fight global inflation, although new US sanctions against Russian oil companies led to a short-term rise in prices.
The food sector is also affected by falling prices, particularly for grains such as rice, wheat and corn. This development could promote food affordability in developing countries. In contrast, coffee prices remain high as adverse weather conditions have reduced production volumes and pushed prices to a peak in early 2025.
Precious metals such as gold and silver continue their upward trend and remain sought-after safe investments in times of economic uncertainty. After notable price increases in the past, further slight growth is predicted for 2026. These developments reflect the ongoing uncertainty in global markets and highlight the importance of precious metals as a stable investment.
