DUBAI – June 16, 2025 — Gold prices in Dubai saw a significant uptick on Monday, rising by AED 3.75 per gram, tracking a global surge as bullion prices approached a two-month high amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.
The price of 24K gold in Dubai climbed to AED 287.25 per gram, up from AED 283.50 the previous trading session. Similar increases were recorded across other purities, with 22K at AED 265, 21K at AED 256.50, and 18K at AED 220.
Global Market Rally
On the international stage, spot gold rose to $2,408 per ounce, its highest level since mid-April. Analysts attribute the rise to renewed safe-haven buying as markets respond to growing unease in the region following a string of cross-border escalations and diplomatic strains between key regional powers.
“Geopolitical uncertainty tends to drive investors toward gold, and with the latest developments in the Middle East, we’re seeing that classic reaction,” said Rania Karim, commodities strategist at Global Invest Research. “The recent jump is also supported by a softer U.S. dollar and expectations of a more dovish tone from central banks.”
Retailers See Uptick in Cautious Buying
Gold retailers in Dubai’s traditional markets, including the Gold Souk and major malls, reported a moderate increase in foot traffic, though many consumers appear to be adopting a “wait-and-watch” approach in hopes of potential price corrections.
“We’ve seen more inquiries than usual today,” said Mohammed Al Suwaidi, manager at a Deira-based jewelry store. “Some customers are buying in small quantities, concerned that prices could climb further if tensions worsen.”
What’s Next?
Gold’s future trajectory will likely hinge on developments in the Middle East, as well as upcoming economic signals from the U.S. Federal Reserve. If rate cuts are hinted at during the next Fed meeting, gold could gain even more ground due to the inverse relationship between interest rates and non-yielding assets like gold.

Takeaway:
Gold is once again proving to be a reliable safe haven in times of global uncertainty. For buyers in the UAE, the message is clear: keep an eye on the news—and on the ticker.
