In the global market, gold rose by $22 per ounce to reach $4,334. The increase pushed domestic prices higher across Pakistan’s bullion markets.

Analysts link the rally to persistent global demand and safe-haven buying amid economic uncertainty. Investors continue to favour gold as a hedge against inflation and market volatility.
Some forecasts indicate that momentum may slow down in the future. Morgan Stanley expects gold to remain strong but predicts that gains will ease starting in 2026. The bank estimates prices could peak at $5,000 to $5,500 per ounce following a significant two-year rally.
