Why Gold Prices Are Rising So Rapidly
Experts link the increase in gold prices to the global surge in gold rates, rupee depreciation, and rising demand from investors seeking safe assets during uncertain economic conditions.
They also pointed out that international gold prices have been climbing due to geopolitical tensions, inflation concerns, and market volatility, which directly impact local prices.
Investors Shifting to Gold for Stability
As the rupee continues to weaken, more investors in Pakistan are opting to store value in gold. Jewelers report a decrease in jewelry sales but a strong demand for gold bars and coins, used primarily for long-term savings.
