LIVE MARKET ALERT Platinum prices moved higher in intraday trade, with spot values reaching 2,530.8 per ounce, marking a 3.13% gain. The metal’s upward momentum reflects sustained investor interest amid signs of increased industrial utilization and steady buying from the automotive and jewelry sectors. Trading volumes indicate strong follow-through, reinforcing near-term bullish sentiment in the precious metals complex.
Market participants attribute the gains to tightening supply conditions and renewed risk appetite in commodities. Analysts note that platinum’s relative undervaluation compared to other precious metals continues to attract speculative flows. Technical indicators show resistance levels being tested, suggesting that further gains could depend on the strength of macroeconomic data and demand from major manufacturing hubs.
Key Drivers:
• Ongoing strength in industrial and automotive catalyst demand supporting spot prices.
• Speculative inflows and constrained supply contributing to positive price momentum.
