October 18, 2024 (MLN): Gold surged to a fresh record in Pakistan, with 24-karat gold being sold at Rs280,900 per tola after a jump of Rs3,000.
The yellow metal is up Rs60,900 or 27.7% so far this year.
Globally, spot gold topped $2,700 an ounce for the first time, as concerns over escalating conflicts in the Middle East and a tight US election race prompt investors to flock to safety.
