The gold market in Pakistan has witnessed a slight uptick for the second day in a row this Wednesday. This development follows a period of fluctuating gold prices, providing a glimmer of optimism for investors and consumers alike.
Based on the latest figures from the Karachi Sarafa Association, the cost of 24-carat gold increased by Rs. 400 per tola, reaching Rs. 215,500. Simultaneously, the price for 10 grams of gold went up by Rs. 343, settling at Rs. 184,756.
Despite a decrease of Rs. 1,200 per tola at the week’s start, gold prices managed to rebound with a Rs. 300 rise on Tuesday. However, the overall weekly trend shows a net decrease of Rs. 500 per tola in gold prices.
On the international stage, the price of spot gold stood at $2,034.56 per ounce around 0327 GMT, with US gold futures maintaining a steady pace at $2,050.80 per ounce.
These figures underscore the dynamic nature of the global gold market, reflecting a complex interplay of factors influencing prices.
As the week progresses, the minor increase in gold prices in Pakistan marks a notable point of interest for both investors and consumers. While the global gold market continues to exhibit its characteristic volatility, local trends provide valuable insights into the economic landscape.
