Silver price stays above $32.30 ahead of US presidential elections.
US Trump’s victory could be beneficial for the US Dollar and bond yields.
Investors will also focus on the US ISM Services PMI for October.
Silver price (XAG/USD) jumps to near $32.60 in Tuesday’s European session. The white metal remains broadly sideways above the key support of $32.30 ahead of the United States (US) presidential elections, which will start in the New York session. The asset is expected to face sharp volatility after agencies will start providing exit polls.
Traders expect a neck-to-neck competition between former US President Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. The outlook on precious metals relies heavily on the US election outcome. Trump's victory could be unfavorable for precious metals, such as Silver, as he vowed to raise tariffs on imports and trim corporate taxes, which will escalate price pressures.
The scenario that will improve the outlook of the US Dollar and bond yields in an inflationary environment will prompt the need for a restrictive interest rate stance by the Federal Reserve (Fed).
Ahead of US elections, the US Dollar Index (DXY), which gauges Greenback’s value against six major currencies, edges lower to near 103.70 but remains inside Monday’s trading range. 10-year US Treasury yields wobble near 4.3%.
