    How the U.S. Presidential Election Could Influence Precious Metals Prices

    July 21, 20243 Mins Read


    Via Metal Miner

    The Global Precious Metals MMI (Monthly Metals Index) held its four-month long sideways trend month-over-month. All in all, the index narrowly missed trading flat, only budging down 0.18%. However, numerous factors continue to pull at precious metals prices in general. Gold, for one, appeared to finally be settling down after reaching record highs earlier in the year. However, by mid July, gold prices began climbing again, meaning Gold prices have yet to peak.


    With wars in other parts of the globe, inflation still somewhat elevated, and a presidential election on the horizon, precious metals prices could witness more price volatility in the latter half of 2024. This is often especially true right before an election takes place. In the months (and particularly weeks) leading up to a U.S. presidential election, precious metals prices tend to experience increased volatility mainly due to the future policies of the U.S. being up for question. As such, investors are advised to watch market patterns carefully before investing.

    Volatility in Palladium Prices


    Palladium prices remained highly volatile, showing sudden spikes to the upside followed by reversals to the downside. After palladium prices breached last month’s high, the trend quickly reversed and traded down, forming lower highs and lower lows. Palladium prices continue to remain extremely volatile, thus increasing the overall risk of uncertainty in the market.

    Precious Metals Prices: Platinum

    Platinum prices remained in a sideways trend, showing little to no sign of any strength to either side of the market. As the current market trend remains flat, platinum prices will remain uncertain until a break above range occurs.

    Silver Prices Falter


    Meanwhile, silver prices failed to continue their uptrend. Although prices did see a modest increase earlier this month, they failed to engineer a new high and ultimately reversed to the downside, forming a lower low and lower high. As market trends continue to show volatility, the overall direction for silver markets remains uncertain.

    Precious Metals Prices: Gold

    Following a gold rally that began earlier this month, prices are now up over 6% since the month of June. A combination of the ongoing geopolitical uncertainty and economic data revolving around Federal Reserve interest rate policies continued to drive gold prices. which reached a notable high of 2,480.23 on July 16. Given this new peak and the fact that prices remain at historically high levels, traders should watch prices closely for a continuation to the upside or possible bearish reversal.
