Silver Rates in Pakistan
Silver wasn’t spared either, slipping to Rs8,444 per tola after a drop of Rs70 in recent sessions.
Despite a powerful rally at the start of the year, gold has now fallen more than 8% since tensions escalated with Iran on February 28. However, a recent ceasefire between the US and Iran has introduced a new twist. Market analysts believe investors could rush back to gold as a safe-haven asset, potentially triggering another surge in prices in the coming days.
Adding further intrigue, Iran’s Supreme National Security Council has confirmed that talks with the United States are set to begin on April 10 in Islamabad, following the submission of Iran’s proposal through Pakistan. Still, officials have cautioned that these negotiations should not be seen as a definitive end to the conflict.
