Today’s Change: Why Did Gold Prices Drop?
On December 30, 2025, gold prices in Pakistan decreased by up to Rs. 5,500 per tola and Rs. 4,715 per 10 grams compared to the previous trading day. This follows a period of strong gains, with prices hitting record highs earlier in the week (e.g., around Rs. 475,662 per tola on December 29).
The decline aligns with a drop in the international gold spot price, which fell to approximately $4,478 per ounce (down from recent peaks above $4,500). Key factors include:
- Easing geopolitical tensions and market corrections after a bullish run.
- Fluctuations in the US Dollar strength and expectations around US Federal Reserve interest rate policies.
- Reduced short-term demand from central banks and ETFs, though long-term buying remains robust.
In Pakistan, additional factors include the performance of the Pakistani Rupee against the USD and local supply dynamics. Recent restrictions on gold imports (now eased) had previously contributed to supply constraints, pushing prices higher.
Why Gold Remains Popular in Pakistan
Gold holds immense cultural and economic significance in Pakistan – from wedding jewelry to inflation hedging. Despite today’s dip, the metal has shown strong upward trends in 2025, driven by:
- Global inflation concerns.
- Geopolitical instability.
- High demand from Asian markets, including central bank purchases.
Outlook for Gold Prices in 2026 and Beyond
Experts remain bullish on gold. Forecasts suggest prices could continue rising due to:
- Potential US rate cuts.
- Ongoing demand from China and India.
- Currency depreciation risks in emerging markets like Pakistan.

Analysts predict significant increases over the next five years (2025–2030), with international gold potentially reaching new highs. In Pakistan, if the PKR weakens further, local rates could rise substantially above current levels.
