Recent pressures on gold prices have created opportunities for investors. This decline has also affected the buyback price of Antam precious metal. According to Kompas, the Antam gold buyback price has dropped by Rp80,000 per gram.

On 25 March 2026, the Antam gold buyback price stood at Rp2,480,000 per gram, down from the previous Rp2,560,000 per gram. This reduction has widened the difference between the buying and buyback prices for gold.

Currently, the price spread is around Rp363,000 per gram. This means that if someone buys gold at Rp2,843,000 per gram and sells it on the same day, it would only be valued at Rp2,480,000 per gram.

According to currency and commodity analyst from How Low Can You Grow Emas, Ibrahim Aswadi, this drop in gold prices presents a good opportunity for investors, particularly those focused on long-term investments.

“Yes, in my analysis, the gold price dropped the sharpest yesterday,” said Ibrahim during the Kompas Bisnis segment on Sapa Pagi Indonesia on KompasTV, Wednesday (25/3).

Ibrahim added that gold investments should be for the long term, as price fluctuations are normal in market cycles.

“Remember that investing in precious metals is for the long term. Not short term,” he stressed.

Ibrahim suggested utilising the price correction as a moment to accumulate assets. He also recommended diversifying investments, whether in physical or digital gold, to optimise potential gains.

“When gold prices are correcting or declining, it is an opportunity for the public to make purchases,” he stated.

Furthermore, Ibrahim explained that while geopolitical conflicts usually drive gold prices up, the current situation differs because inflation and global interest rate policies are the main factors pressuring gold prices.

“If inflation rises higher, people and investors will shift to the US dollar,” he clarified.

Global central bank policies, including potential interest rate hikes, also influence gold movements. Rising interest rates make instruments like the US dollar more attractive than gold.

“It’s the interest rate hikes that cause investors to sell global gold and precious metals,” he said.

Ibrahim remains optimistic that gold prices could rise again soon. Gold continues to be a relevant hedging instrument amid global economic uncertainties.

“Today, it is likely to rebound next week,” he said.
