prices surge in Pakistan for third straight day"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ISLAMABAD: Gold prices in Pakistan continued their upward trajectory on Friday, with the price of one tola climbing by another Rs5,100 to extend a three-day rally driven by gains in the international bullion market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers\u2019 Association, the price of 24-karat gold rose to Rs454,336 per tola after Friday\u2019s increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The price of 10 grams of 24-karat gold also increased by Rs4,372, settling at Rs389,519.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The latest increase means gold has become Rs26,400 more expensive per tola over the past three trading sessions, reflecting sustained momentum in global bullion prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jewellers attributed the sharp rise to continued volatility in international markets and growing investor demand for safe-haven assets amid global economic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Analysts say gold prices remain sensitive to a range of international factors, including central bank monetary policies, movements in the US dollar, inflation expectations and ongoing regional conflicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even modest fluctuations in global bullion markets often have an immediate impact on domestic prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The continued surge has also dampened consumer demand, with jewellers reporting a noticeable slowdown in gold purchases as soaring prices put jewellery beyond the reach of many buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Traders said that most customers are now making purchases only when necessary, while discretionary buying has declined significantly due to record-high prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The persistent rally underscores the growing appeal of gold as a safe investment during periods of heightened uncertainty, even as elevated prices weigh on retail demand in Pakistan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISLAMABAD: Gold prices in Pakistan continued their upward trajectory on Friday, with the price of one tola
