Stalled talks between the United States and Iran are causing sharp swings in the precious-metal market. President Trump has recently asked Tehran for compensation tied to historic conflicts, a move that halts the ongoing peace dialogue. The abrupt stalemate eliminates any short-term chance of reopening the Strait of Hormuz, leading to higher global oil prices and renewed concerns about inflation. In response, nervous investors are buying gold and silver as safe-haven assets, driving up prices in Pakistan where local Sarafa markets continually adjust to these macro pressures.
