NEWS: ACCORDING TO THE WORLD PLATINUM INVESTMENT COUNCIL, AT THE END OF 2022 THERE WAS ONLY ENOUGH PLATINUM SUPPLY TO COVER 39 WEEKS OF DEMAND: The World Platinum Investment Council signals significant deficit in platinum expected throughout 2023. However, around 80% of platinum supply is set to be imported by China, and will not be available globally due to Chinese export controls. The council outlines, as a result, platinum storage will only be able to cover 6 weeks of demand. Given the tight supply expectations, platinum prices could appreciate as a result.
