High turnout, yields go up sharply

Over 100 million Americans chose to vote early. In 2016, approximately 137.5 million votes were cast overall, of which 47 million were cast earlier. Nevertheless, it can now be expected that a large proportion of the votes have already been cast due to the pandemic.
Biden's election team shows strong performance in Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Nebraska-2. Florida, on the other hand, is very uncertain.

EURUSD is rising, and it has reached its highest level in several days. Yields clearly up by almost 6 basis points. Source: xStation5
