Shocking Forecast: Why Platinum's Deficit Will Last to 2029!

Ed Sterck of the World Platinum Investment Council breaks down why platinum is heading for a deep, sustained supply deficit through 2029, while palladium is shifting into surplus driven by increased recycling. He explains how structural factors like supply constraints, vehicle electrification, and substitution trends are reshaping the outlook for both metals.

Sterck also highlights the broader impact of macro trends including a weakening US dollar, central bank gold buying, and potential US tariffs. With China’s platinum jewelry demand rising and geopolitical risks tightening supply chains, platinum may offer strong upside. This timely update offers a clear view into precious metals markets under pressure.
