Pakistan Transporters Strike Persists, Disrupting Ports & Trade

While a section of transporters and fuel oil tankers called off their protest after government agreements, major operators' demands remain unmet. This ongoing disruption could exacerbate supply chain issues and inflationary pressures, potentially influencing the USD/PKR exchange rate and local gold demand.
