Palladium weekly special report based on 1.00 Lot Calculation:
PALLADIUM: USE AND MARKET SHARE
- Palladium is mostly used in catalytic converters by the car industry to reduce harmful gas emissions, while tightening regulations are forcing automakers to put more Palladium into each vehicle, which in turn could keep the demand outlook positive. Palladium has also been used in fuel cells to generate power.
- MARKET SHARE (PRODUCERS): Russia is the largest producer, holding 43% of the market, while South Africa is the second largest with 33.00% of the market. Canada is third on the list with 9.5% of the global production.
- MARKET SHARE (CONSUMERS): China is the largest Palladium consumer with 31%, while Europe and North America (USA) hold 20% each. Japan stands at 11%.
EVENTS (USA):
- MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2 AT 14:45 GMT: US MANUFACTURING PURCHASING MANAGERS INDEX DATA (PMI) (JANUARY). A stronger-than-expected PMI reading would indicate expanding factory activity in the U.S., supporting vehicle production and industrial use, which could boost palladium demand and prices.
- FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 6 AT 13:30 GMT: US NONFARM PAYROLLS (NFP) AND UNEMPLOYMENT RATE (JANUARY). Weaker-than-expected job growth and a higher unemployment rate could boost expectations of U.S. interest rate cuts, weighing on the dollar and supporting precious metals, including palladium.
- WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11 AT 13:30 GMT: US INFLATION DATA (CPI)(JANUARY). A softer-than-expected CPI could increase rate cut expectations and support industrial metals demand, potentially boosting palladium prices.
EVENTS (CHINA):
- SATURDAY, JANUARY 31 AT 01:30 GMT: CHINA MANUFACTURING PMI (JANUARY). A stronger-than-expected PMI reading would indicate improving factory activity in China, supporting vehicle production and industrial demand, which would be positive for palladium prices.
- WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11 AT 1:30 GMT: CHINA INFLATION DATA (CPI) (JANUARY). A stronger CPI reading would point out to improving domestic demand in China, supporting vehicle sales and industrial activity, which would be positive for palladium prices.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS:
- PALLADIUM PRICE ABOVE 100-DAILY MOVING AVERAGE: Palladium price has remained above its 100-day moving average, indicating a potential uptrend. The trend could reverse if Palladium price goes below this average.

- PALLADIUM HIT AN ALL-TIME HIGH OF $3,409 (March 2022): Palladium price has traded around $1,750, and if a full recovery takes place, the price of palladium could see an upside of around 95%. Although the price could decline as well.
