“Platinum prices traded mostly sideways through November, fluctuating between $1,500 and $1,600. A sharp breakout in gold and silver on the final trading day of November helped lift platinum as well, with the metal closing the month at $1,685 after touching an intraday high of $1,695.90. Prices continued to strengthen on 1 December, reaching $1,736, before losing momentum and stabilizing around $1,650 at elevated levels.
Platinum continues to take its cues from gold and silver, both of which have been moving sideways after the surge on 1 December. CPM Group expects platinum prices to trade sideways to higher in the coming months, reflecting seasonal strength and a generally constructive precious metals backdrop. Historically, December–February tends to be one of platinum’s stronger seasonal windows, driven by automotive industry restocking and favorable investor flows.”
