Global gold prices move higher
In the international market, the price of gold increased by $37 per ounce, reaching $5,205.
The rise in global bullion prices often directly affects local gold rates in Pakistan, as domestic prices are largely influenced by international market trends and exchange rates.
Silver prices remain unchanged
While gold prices climbed sharply, silver prices remained stable in the local market.
The price of silver per tola stayed unchanged at Rs9,354, while 10 grams of silver remained steady at Rs8,019.
In the international market, silver prices also held steady at $88.70 per ounce, showing no change from the previous session.
