US-CHINA TRADE WAR
- THURSDAY, JUNE 26: U.S. AND CHINA REACH NEW TRADE AGREEMENT: President Trump announced the signing of a new trade deal with China, calling it “a great deal for both countries.” While specific terms are still emerging, the agreement reportedly covers agriculture, manufacturing, and digital trade, and includes a gradual reduction of tariffs. For palladium, the easing of trade tensions between the world’s two largest economies could boost market sentiment and industrial demand, particularly in the automotive sector, which is a key driver of palladium consumption.
EVENTS (USA):
- TUESDAY, JULY 1 AT 14:45 GMT+1: US MANUFACTURING PMI (JUNE). This index reflects the health of the U.S. manufacturing sector and serves as a key indicator for industrial demand. A stronger-than-expected reading could support palladium prices by signaling improved production activity and potentially higher demand for vehicles, where palladium is widely used in catalytic converters. (Previous: 52)
EVENTS (CHINA):
- MONDAY, JUNE 30 AT 02:30 GMT+1: CHINA MANUFACTURING PMI (JUNE). The index that measures the Chinese manufacturing activity grew in May to 49.5, up from April's 49. If the trend continues in June, Palladium prices are expected to see some upward pressure as growing manufacturing activity in China, the largest palladium consumer in the world, improves the demand outlook for Palladium.
