KARACHI – The gold price in Pakistan has dropped following a fall in international markets. According to the All-Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association (APGJSA), a tola of gold fell by Rs600 to Rs466,162. Meanwhile, 10 grams of gold dropped by Rs515 to Rs399,658.
This decline continues a recent trend of falling gold rates in the country. On Wednesday alone, the gold price per tola saw a significant Rs1,200 decrease. Analysts attribute the drop to global market fluctuations, where gold fell by $6 to $4,438 per ounce despite a $20 premium added.
The weekly trend shows that the gold price has been volatile, with small ups and downs over the last few days. On January 6, a tola was priced at Rs467,962, while it stood at Rs454,562 on January 1. Market experts warn that these swings could continue, creating uncertainty for investors and traders.
Silver prices also saw a decline, falling by Rs236 to Rs8,125 per tola. Traders believe that precious metals could remain under pressure in the coming days due to international market trends and global economic uncertainty.
Despite the fall, gold remains a preferred investment in Pakistan, especially as a hedge against inflation and currency fluctuations. Investors are advised to monitor daily price updates and make informed decisions before trading or purchasing gold.
APGJSA officials highlighted that short-term market movements often impact gold price, but long-term demand remains stable. They also noted that local jewelry demand continues to support the market, even during global dips.
