Negative

Explanation:

The electron has a path along which it rotates around the nucleus of an atom. This path is known as an electron cloud. The electron always has a negative charge irrespective of the charge of the electron cloud.

If the atom has a deficiency of electrons then it will be an atom of a non metal and an excess of electrons indicates the element is metallic.
