    Currently, international spot gold is trading at $2,055.91, indicating a 0.48 per cent increase compared to the previous session’s closing.

    Furthermore, international gold is set for its second consecutive weekly gain, influenced by the weakening dollar and US Treasury yields.

    The recent statement from the US Federal Reserve, outlining a cumulative rate cut of 75 basis points in 2024, is putting sustained pressure on the dollar and Treasury yields, contributing to further gains for the precious metal.

    In addition to the impact of international price fluctuations, the domestic gold market is also susceptible to changes in the interbank exchange rate of the local currency.

    The intricate interplay between global and domestic factors continues to shape the dynamics of the gold market in Pakistan.

    Domestic gold prices are intricately linked to changes in global prices and fluctuations in the interbank exchange rate of the local currency. 

    On the international front, the spot price of gold has risen by 0.50 per cent, currently trading at $2,012.39. Market sentiment leans towards the belief that the Federal Reserve has concluded its tightening cycle, exerting downward pressure on the US dollar and bond yields.

    The US dollar index recorded its third consecutive weekly decline, making gold more affordable for holders of other currencies and positively influencing gold prices. 

    Additionally, falling yields enhance the appeal of gold as a safe-haven asset by reducing the opportunity cost of holding the precious metal.
