Gold and Silver saw a pop in price on Friday (10/28), but as you can see in the chart below, it wasn't from the GDP report.

This CNBC screenshot below supports what was stated above because, next to the caption of Mrs. Clinton, the green prices of Gold, Silver, and Copper are moving higher, with the title: “Gold jumps to nearly 4-week high on FBI Clinton probe.” 

Here is a better view.

The markets haven't priced in the possibility of Trump winning the Presidency, which is why Gold and Silver Popped in price on Friday.

Time will tell what will happen, and nobody will know who the winner is till the final count.

The Week Ahead

This week is the run-up to the Elections, and the Federal Reserve has a meeting on the 2nd of November.

Don't expect any fireworks out of the Federal Reserve, for now; everyone is looking to December for a rate hike, plus, they won't raise interest rates because of the election.

Furthermore, this week I expect the markets to be really nervous, with a sideways trade unless another bombshell is announced on either side of the political spectrum.

GOLD

Gold has traded sideways inside the ascending channel, in the chart below, since mid-July. 

The Red vertical line (far right) on the Gold Chart below represents when the next Federal Reserve meeting takes place on November 2nd, and the Black line represents when the U.S. Elections happen on November 8th.

There is little doubt that very little will happen concerning a clear and precise price direction for the precious metals before the U.S. Presidential Elections, plus it is nearly impossible to predict what will happen until after the results of the election are in.                                                                                                     (continued...)

SILVER

For the last two weeks, silver has been trading along the rising trend-line shown in the chart below.

Like gold, politics will dictate silver and the markets this week and, probably, most of the week after. But, silver will need to stay above this rising trend-line for it to have a brighter short-term future."                                                                                         (continued...)

US DOLLAR

Clearly, the news released on Friday about the FBI renewing its probe into Hillary Clinton hurt the US Dollar.

Like all the charts above, politics will dictate the markets for at least until the day of the U.S. Presidential Election, so if you're in the markets, hold on because it will probably get really bumpy.                                                                                                    (continued...)
