Gold prices posted a modest gain in both international and domestic Pakistani markets on Thursday, while silver prices declined across the country.

The precious metal sector displayed divergent momentum, with gold extending its upward trajectory by $4 per ounce globally, according to market reports from The Nation.

This incremental rise follows a period of significant volatility in the region.

Gold prices in Pakistan had climbed sharply earlier in the week, with the per tola rate surging Rs12,200 in a session that mirrored broader international strength.

The subsequent Saturday session also saw higher prices, reversing a brief one-day decline and confirming sustained buying interest in the yellow metal.

The divergence between gold and silver highlights shifting risk appetites among local investors.
