Precious metals apart from platinum were bullish on Monday ahead of the US presidential elections due on Tuesday. Meanwhile, investors were also cautious as Greece parliament is preparing to vote on fresh austerity measures on Wednesday.

Gold rebounded on stronger demand for safe-haven assets amid elevated market turbulence ahead of the US elections.

Silver climbed, following gold's suit. However, the upside was limited by broadly stronger greenback and weak global equities.

Palladium soared on short covering. At the same time, strength in the US Dollar capped gains.
