Karachi: Gold prices recorded another increase in Pakistan on Thursday as international bullion markets continued to gain support from economic uncertainty and geopolitical developments around the world.
The latest rise reflects continued investor interest in precious metals, particularly gold, which is widely regarded as a safe-haven asset during periods of market volatility and global instability.
Gold Rates Move Higher Across Local Markets
According to Beyond Time News, citing figures released by the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association, the price of 24-karat gold per tola increased by Rs1,523 on June 4, 2026.
As a result, the per-tola rate reached Rs469,285, compared with Rs467,762 recorded during the previous trading session.
Similarly, the price of 10 grams of 24-karat gold rose by Rs1,305 to settle at Rs402,335. A day earlier, the same quantity was priced at Rs401,030.
Meanwhile, 10 grams of 22-karat gold also registered an increase. The rate climbed by Rs1,197, taking the price to Rs368,821 from Rs367,624.
International Gold Market Supports Local Gains
The upward trend in Pakistan closely mirrored developments in the international bullion market.
Global gold prices increased by $14.49 per ounce, reaching $4,468.49 compared with $4,454 in the previous session.
Consequently, higher international prices contributed to the increase in domestic gold rates, as local markets often respond to fluctuations in global bullion trading.
Traders noted that international market sentiment continues to influence precious metal prices across major economies, including Pakistan.
Silver Prices Move Lower
While gold prices moved upward, silver witnessed a decline in both domestic and international markets.
The price of silver per tola dropped by Rs97 to Rs7,797. Likewise, the rate for 10 grams of silver fell by Rs83, bringing it down to Rs6,684.
In the international market, silver prices also weakened. Global silver rates declined by $0.91 per ounce to $73.19.
As a result, silver traders experienced a different market trend compared with gold investors during the day’s trading activity.
Why Are Gold Prices Rising?
Market experts attribute the latest increase in gold prices to strong demand for safe-haven investments.
Investors often turn to gold when economic conditions become uncertain or when geopolitical tensions create instability in financial markets. Therefore, ongoing global developments have encouraged many investors to seek protection through precious metals.
Furthermore, concerns about inflation, currency fluctuations, and broader economic risks continue to support gold’s appeal among both institutional and retail investors.
Middle East Developments Remain in Focus
Analysts say investors are closely monitoring developments in the Middle East, which remain a key factor influencing market sentiment.
Particular attention remains on the fragile ceasefire involving Israel and Hezbollah, as well as diplomatic efforts between the United States and Iran aimed at reducing regional tensions.
Although financial markets have shown periods of stability, uncertainty surrounding geopolitical developments continues to encourage demand for traditional safe-haven assets such as gold.

Long-Term Outlook for Gold Remains Positive
Despite short-term fluctuations, many analysts maintain a positive outlook for gold over the long term.
Historically, gold has served as a store of value during periods of inflation, economic uncertainty, and currency depreciation. Consequently, investors often include the precious metal in their portfolios as a hedge against financial risks.
As global markets navigate ongoing economic and political challenges, experts expect gold to remain an important investment option for those seeking stability and wealth preservation.
