Gold prices in Egypt continue today, Friday, and until evening trading, to rise in the local market, despite the firm stability on the global market for the price of gold, as an ounce recorded 1918 dollars.
Sources in the goldsmiths’ market attributed the reasons for the increase in the yellow metal by about 100 pounds at the different prices of bullets, to one of two things: the change in the exchange rate in the parallel market or the increase in demand.
While other sources pointed out that the sudden increase in gold prices in Egypt, which had not occurred since last June (2250 pounds, the price of a 21 carat gram), came as a result of the demand for buying bullion and pounds.
And the sources continued, which suggested that the demand for gold is behind its high price, and not the change in the exchange rate in the parallel market, justifying this with the increase in the demand for gold pounds after the appearance of the high school results, as well as engagement and wedding occasions, in addition to the purchases of citizens in order to save.
