Bullion dealers said the decline in domestic prices largely mirrored losses in international markets, where gold and silver weakened amid shifting investor sentiment and evolving geopolitical developments.
Gold, often viewed as a safe-haven asset, has remained volatile in recent weeks due to uncertainty in global financial markets and geopolitical tensions. Analysts said fluctuations in the US dollar and interest rate expectations also continue to influence precious metal prices.
In Pakistan, local prices are additionally impacted by exchange rate movements and domestic demand patterns.
Analysis: Market participants expect continued volatility in gold and silver prices in the near term, with global economic conditions and geopolitical risks likely to remain key drivers of price trends.
