Analysis:
Bullion market analysts attributed the decline to a dip in international prices, where gold and silver eased as investors reassessed safe-haven demand. Global markets have been reacting to shifting geopolitical tensions and trade-related developments, prompting cautious trading behavior.
In Pakistan, the prices of precious metals are also influenced by the exchange rate of the rupee against the U.S. dollar, amplifying the impact of global fluctuations. Dealers noted that recent corrections in international markets triggered selling pressure locally.
Market participants expect continued volatility in the coming days, as investors monitor global economic cues, inflation trends, and central bank policies that could shape the outlook for precious metals.
