Gold Price and Key Elections

After all, the USA and India together account for about 40 percent of global gold demand. The outcome of the US presidential election will influence the global economy and the strength or weakness of the US dollar, which in turn affects the price of the precious metal. Historically, the price of gold tends to rise before a US election. Additionally, a recession in the country is still a possibility, which would result in a weaker US dollar and a higher gold price. Regardless of the election outcome, the massive US debt is more likely to increase rather than decrease. If the debt dynamics are not sustainable, upward pressure on interest rates may occur. Industry experts generally believe that if Donald Trump were to be re-elected, it would further boost the gold price due to increased uncertainty.

Both Trump and Biden will struggle to rein in the budget deficit. Estimates suggest that the budget deficit could accumulate to nearly 170 percent over the next three decades. The population is aging (as it is here), interest payments will rise, and tax revenues are insufficient. If Trump were to win and extend his tax cuts from his time in office, this could drive the debt to more than 200 percent of gross domestic product. Increasing debt and deficits should positively impact the gold price. Regardless of the winner, they are unlikely to make drastic decisions to put the financial situation back on a healthier footing.

Gold should also benefit given it is an election year. Therefore, gold assets such as Collective Mining or Fury Gold Mines are desirable components in a balanced portfolio.
