Historical Context
Earlier this week, on Thursday, gold prices had surged by Rs4,600 per tola to reach a peak of Rs254,000. However, this increase was reversed as global trends impacted local prices.
International Trends
Globally, international gold rates saw a decrease on Friday. The rate dropped to $2,415 per ounce, with a premium of $20. This represents a $55 decline during the day, reflecting changes in international market dynamics.
Impact of the US Dollar
The relationship between gold prices and the US Dollar plays a crucial role in determining gold’s value. As the US Dollar strengthens, gold prices often face downward pressure. Conversely, a weaker Dollar can lead to higher gold prices. Recent trends show a strengthening Dollar, contributing to the current decrease in gold prices.

In addition to gold, silver prices also experienced a drop. The price per tola decreased by Rs50, settling at Rs2,850.
