FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS:
- U.S. AND CHINA REACHED A NEW TRADE AGREEMENT. The deal eased mutual tariffs and restored rare-earth exports, signaling a thaw in economic tensions. The deal sparked optimism around China’s industrial recovery, boosting demand expectations for metals like platinum. As a result, platinum prices surged nearly 8% in a week, supported by stronger sentiment, a weaker dollar, and renewed Chinese appetite for industrial inputs.
- PLATINUM IMPORTS IN CHINA IN APRIL HIT 11.5 METRIC TONS — THE HIGHEST MONTHLY VOLUME IN A YEAR. Chinese jewelers are increasing platinum imports as high gold prices dampen gold jewelry sales. Even a 1% shift from gold to platinum jewelry could double the supply deficit to 1.6M oz (Source: BofA).
- THE WORLD PLATINUM INVESTMENT COUNCIL (WPIC) PROJECTS A SUPPLY DEFICIT OF NEARLY 1 MILLION OUNCES IN 2025 driven by strong demand and constrained output.

- FRIDAY, JUNE 27 AT 13:30 GMT+1: CORE PCE PRICE INDEX (MAY): Weaker-than-expected core PCE data—considered the Fed’s key inflation indicator—tends to weaken the U.S. dollar by reducing the likelihood of further rate hikes. A softer dollar supports platinum prices. On the other hand, stronger core PCE readings can lift the dollar and weigh on platinum.
