I have 2 guesses for bullish view.
1. COVID-19 second wave might turn Gold attractive again as a save haven which could later cause "Gold crash" by end of first quarter once vaccine news start rolling out.
2. Stimulus would come after election - crazy view though. If Rep looses, they might agree to the terms of Dem on stimulus (maybe they are just be waiting for a good time to play "You just lost a good and empathetic leader game").
