Platinum (and Palladium) doing well this morning maybe related
to combustion engine
news coming out
of EU. Spot platinum closed at 1703 on 12/11/25 when I posted
this. Very logical target at least $1900 on the channel but
it would be interesting to see if the favorable seasonality on
Platinum turns out to be true again and where it will be at by end
of January. According to that article, also, "Car
manufacturers typically begin ramping up production planning in Q1,
driving forward orders for platinum-rich autocatalysts —
particularly in diesel and hybrid segments where platinum loadings
remain high".
Revisiting my channel on Platinum, I thought it would cool off
(I was wrong) but w/that channel break to the upside it went crazy.
And that's usually the case with channel breaks from my
personal experience. But the rotation into Platinum since
12/11/25 (see previous post in this thread) because of seasonality
did play out.
Platinum (and Palladium) doing well
DUST ... on the bright side, it can't go to ...

Spot Platinum hit $1951 and is now around $1900, top of the channel, might back off from here short-term.
