Why Do Gold Rates Change Every Day?
Gold is quoted in US Dollars per troy ounce globally. Hence there are two factors that influence the local rate on a day-to-day basis, the worldwide gold price itself and the strength or weakness of the Pakistani Rupee versus the Dollar. The costs of import and demand are also taken into account by local jewellers and the Sarafa Association, which is why tariffs might change slightly from city to city even on the same day.
24K vs 22K vs 21K — Which Gold Should You Buy?
24 carat gold is 99.9% pure and is generally purchased as an investment because it is too soft for everyday jewelry. Most of the gold jewelry in Pakistan is 22 carat (91.6% pure) gold, which gives a good balance of purity and durability. 21 carat and 18 karat are more inexpensive, more durable choices commonly used for everyday jewelry.
