Gold price in Pakistan dropped by Rs500 per tola on Tuesday, with 24-karat gold now selling at Rs283,200 per tola. This decline is part of a recent trend as gold prices fluctuate due to market uncertainty and global events.

Gold Price Changes in the Global Market
Globally, the price of spot gold traded around $2,737 per ounce, up by a modest $0.9, or 0.03%, from the last session. Investors around the world are paying close attention to key events, including the upcoming U.S. presidential election and a Federal Reserve policy decision, which could affect global gold prices in the coming days.
U.S. Election’s Possible Effect on Gold Prices
Analysts say that the results of the U.S. The election could strongly influence gold prices. Han Tan, a chief market analyst at Exinity Group, suggests that most traders are waiting to see how the election unfolds before making any big moves. If Harris wins, her low-interest-rate policies might lead to a rise in gold prices. However, if Trump wins and the dollar strengthens, gold demand may weaken. Tan predicts that gold could eventually reach the $2,800 mark “once the dust settles” following the U.S. election.
