Gold was priced at SAR 623.88 per gram, up from SAR 620.24 on Monday.\n\nGold increased to SAR 7,276.72 per tola from SAR 7,234.41 a day earlier. Other listed prices were SAR 6,238.74 for 10 grams and SAR 19,404.85 per troy ounce.\n\n<h3>How Pricing Is Calculated<\/h3>\nFXStreet converts international gold prices into Saudi Riyals using the USD\/SAR rate and local measurement units. The prices are updated daily at the time of publication and are for reference, as local rates may differ slightly.\n\nGold has been used historically as a store of value and a medium of exchange. It is often treated as a safe-haven asset and as protection against inflation and currency depreciation.\n\nCentral banks hold the most gold and may buy it to diversify reserves. In 2022, central banks added 1,136 tonnes of gold worth about $70 billion, the highest annual total since records began.\n\nGold often moves inversely to the US Dollar and US Treasuries, and can also move opposite to risk assets like shares. Its price is influenced by geopolitics, recession fears, interest rates, and US Dollar movements.\n\n<h3>Market Drivers And Outlook<\/h3>\nWe are seeing gold prices strengthen, which is a direct reflection of a softening U.S. dollar. The Dollar Index (DXY) has recently slipped to around 101.5 as the market prices in the Federal Reserve&#8217;s signals of potential rate cuts later this year. This environment makes non-yielding gold more attractive for traders to hold.\n\nThis upward price movement is also supported by persistent safe-haven demand amid ongoing global supply chain jitters. We saw a similar flight to safety during the market uncertainties of 2024, and this pattern appears to be repeating. This underlying bid for gold provides a solid floor for current prices.\n\nLooking at the demand side, central bank buying remains a powerful force in the market. Following the record purchases we witnessed back in 2022, data for the full year of 2025 showed another massive net purchase of over 950 tonnes, led by emerging economies. This consistent institutional demand continues to absorb supply and support higher valuations.\n\nFor traders, this suggests positioning for further upside in the coming weeks seems prudent. Buying call options on gold futures or ETFs could be an effective way to capture this expected move while defining risk. Given the trend, selling out-of-the-money puts to collect premium is another viable strategy for those with a bullish conviction.\n\nHowever, we must watch for any unexpectedly strong U.S. economic data, such as the upcoming jobs report. A surprisingly high payroll number could force the Federal Reserve to adopt a more hawkish tone, strengthening the dollar and creating a swift headwind for gold. This remains the primary risk to the current bullish setup.\n\n<b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/trade-now\/\">Create your live VT Markets account<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/myaccount.vtmarkets.com\/login\">start trading<\/a>\u00a0now. <\/b>\n<p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Start trading now &#8211; Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/trade-now\/\">here<\/a> to create your real VT Markets account <\/strong> <\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:post-content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gold prices rose in Saudi Arabia Tuesday; gram reached SAR 623.88, tola SAR 7,276.72, FXStreet reports.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":38,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30295","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-live-updates"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"featured_image_src":null,"featured_image_src_square":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"josephine","author_link":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/author\/josephine\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30295","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/38"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30295"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30295\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30295"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30295"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30295"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
