The price of 24-karat gold rose suddenly on Saturday, December 27, 2025, reaching its highest level and recording 6,943 pounds per gram for purchase. This came after record highs, reaching its highest level in history, driven by increased demand for safe havens amid escalating geopolitical tensions, along with the continued weakness of the US dollar as the end of the year approaches.
Gold price today in Egypt:
– 24-karat gold price: 6,943 pounds
– 21-karat gold price: 6,075 pounds
– 18-karat gold price: 5,207 pounds
– Gold pound price today: 48,600 pounds
These increases came after global markets resumed work following the Christmas holiday, rising for the fourth consecutive session, stabilizing above $4,500 per ounce, amid continued buying momentum in the markets.
The rise in gold prices today is attributed to several factors, most notably expectations of US interest rate cuts, a weak dollar, declining liquidity at year-end, along with escalating geopolitical risks, which reinforced investors’ shift towards gold as a safe haven.
