Gold prices in Pakistan increased again today, reaching a new high and becoming more expensive for buyers.
According to reports from Karachi, the price of gold per tola went up by Rs. 800, reaching around Rs. 593,962 in the local market. This shows a continuous rise in gold prices both locally and internationally.
Similarly, the price of 10 grams of gold also increased by Rs. 686, reaching Rs. 423,492. In the global market, gold prices also moved upward, with the price per ounce increasing by $8 to reach $4,716.
Silver prices also followed the same trend. The price of silver per tola increased to Rs. 8,049, showing that precious metals are becoming more expensive overall.
Experts say that this increase is mainly due to rising global gold prices and fluctuations in the value of the Pakistani rupee. When the currency becomes unstable, gold often becomes more valuable.
Gold is traditionally considered a safe investment. During times of inflation, political uncertainty, or economic instability, people usually prefer to invest in gold to protect their money.
For centuries, gold has been used as a form of wealth and currency. When investors feel unsure about other options, they often turn to gold as a safer choice.
It is also important to note that last year, Pakistan changed the method of setting gold prices. Under the new system, local gold prices are fixed at $20 per ounce higher than international market rates.
