Gold Price in Pakistan Reaches 6-Month High After Significant Single Day Surge

The price of gold in Pakistan experienced a significant surge on Thursday, reaching a 6-month high of Rs. 232,400 per tola. This increase was reported by the Karachi Sarafa Association, indicating a rise of Rs. 4,600 per tola for 24-carat gold.

The surge in gold prices can be attributed to a record high in the international market, where spot gold rose by 1 percent to $2,208.30 per ounce, hitting an all-time high earlier in the session. Additionally, US gold futures also saw a significant increase of 2.3 percent, reaching $2,211 per ounce.

This rise in gold prices internationally came as the US dollar and bond yields decreased after the Federal Reserve maintained its projection of three rate cuts for the current year. As a result, investors turned to gold as a safe-haven asset, driving up its price in both domestic and international markets.
