Why Gold Prices Jumped Today
Market analysts point to multiple factors behind today’s sharp rise in gold prices:
International Market Recovery
Global gold prices surged by $117 per ounce, reaching $4,967, which directly pushed local rates higher.
Reversal After Friday’s Crash
On Friday, 6 February 2026, gold prices had suffered a heavy correction, dropping by Rs. 21,400 per tola. Saturday’s increase is widely seen as a technical rebound.
Renewed Investor Demand
Following the correction, investors re-entered the market, treating gold as a safe-haven asset amid global uncertainty.
Silver Prices Also Move Up
Silver prices followed gold’s upward trend on Saturday. The price of silver increased by Rs. 444 per tola, reaching Rs. 8,269 per tola in the domestic market. Silver demand also improved after recent volatility.
Impact of Dollar and Rupee Stability
Despite strong movements in bullion prices, the Pakistani rupee remained relatively stable, trading around Rs. 282.30 against the US dollar in the open market. Analysts believe that stability in the currency helped prevent even sharper increases in gold prices.
Market Outlook for Coming Days
Bullion traders expect continued volatility in the gold market. If international prices maintain upward momentum, gold rates in Pakistan may test new highs in the coming sessions. However, any sudden strengthening of the rupee or profit-taking could trigger another short-term correction.
Investors are advised to closely monitor global economic signals, US interest rate expectations, and currency movements before making large buying decisions.
Final Words
The gold rate in Pakistan today, 7 February 2026, reflects how quickly market sentiment can shift. After a sharp fall on Friday, gold staged a strong comeback, reminding investors why it remains one of the most closely watched commodities in the country.
