>>510963521 (OP)Over the past 50 years, from 1975 to 2025, the nominal price of gold has surged approximately 2,336%, rising from about $139 per troy ounce to around $3,385.10, driven by factors like inflation, geopolitical instability, and goldโs role as a safe-haven asset. However, this growth is uneven, with periods of stagnation and volatility, and the inflation-adjusted compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is modest, estimated at 1.57% to 5.2%. To project the price in 20 years (2045), assuming the nominal historical CAGR of roughly 7.58% (derived from the 2,336% over 50 years), the price could reach approximately $14,600 per troy ounce.
