In a significant development, the fall in domestic gold prices closely mirrored a sharp decrease in the international market. Globally, the price of gold dropped by $38, settling at $4,308 per ounce. This international trend played a crucial role in influencing the local market’s downward adjustment.
Meanwhile, silver prices were not immune to the market shifts, as they also declined by Rs122, settling at Rs6,802 per tola. The simultaneous decrease in both precious metals highlights the broader impact of global market fluctuations on Pakistan’s commodities sector.
