Gold prices remained stable as investors were cautious ahead of the US presidential election.
Market sentiment has been particularly focused on the tight race between Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican candidate Donald Trump, with recent polls indicating the candidates are in a virtual deadlock.
The possibility of delayed election results could introduce additional market uncertainty in the coming days and could fuel some volatility in gold prices.
Looking ahead, market attention will also shift to Thursday’s Federal Reserve monetary policy announcement, where consensus points to an anticipated quarter-point rate cut. The broader environment of monetary easing among major central banks continues to provide long-term support for gold prices.
Furthermore, ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have reinforced gold’s appeal as a safe-haven asset, contributing to its sustained strength in the market.
