Updated: [falahcoin_post_modified_date]

U.S. bond futures slipped and the dollar firmed on Monday as investors speculated on the impact of an attack on U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump. The incident injected new political uncertainty into markets, with traders closely monitoring the situation.

Investors have historically reacted to the possibility of a Trump win by pushing Treasury yields higher, amid concerns about potential economic policies leading to inflation and increased debt. Tariffs on imports and restrictions on migration are among the key policies that could impact consumer spending and labor market dynamics.

Online betting sites have adjusted their odds, with Republicans now seen as twice as likely to win the election compared to Democrats. The dollar edged up against the Japanese yen, but remained below recent highs. In the coming days, a host of economic data from China and the United States, as well as key earnings reports, will provide further insights into market trends.

As global markets navigate political developments, investors are closely monitoring central bank decisions and economic indicators for potential impacts on their portfolios. Gold prices held steady, while oil prices inched up following recent geopolitical developments. With a busy week ahead, analysts and investors are bracing for potential market fluctuations in response to evolving political and economic events.
