    In time of war, governments can enforce anything. They can even conscript by force.

    Nuke first, ask questions later! Top military officers reveal Moscow could respond to ANY rocket attack with a nuclear strike https://on.rt.com/ans2

    Fire any ballistic missile at Russia, and Moscow might respond with a nuclear warhead. That's according to the Russian Defense Ministry, which has publicly disclosed its conditions for launching a nuclear strike.

    “Any attacking missile will be treated as a nuclear-equipped missile. Information about the launch of an automatic missile will be communicated to the country's top leadership, which, depending on the situation, will determine the scale of the nuclear forces’ response,” wrote Andrey Sterlin, a member of Russia's General Staff and Alexander Khryapin, a top military scientist, in the Defense Ministry's newspaper Red Star.

    There is no time for war, only a few thousands of nuclear war heads hitting their targets

    Wars of vastly differing scales have been fought and some are being fought right now in different parts of the world. Seeking the destruction of others tends to be a hallmark trait of some members of the human species.

    Might be due to the "hydrogen economy". I bought the ox just over a week ago for over $150 less. Should have bought PPLT but hesitated.

    They were talking about the hydrogen economy on the MSM the last couple of days. The MSM has the ability to pump prices, just like how they pump EVs. I'm not surprised but I won't be chasing either.

    Notwithstanding the recent bullishness, I expect a big pullback in platinum prices when the stock market dumps within the next 2 months so there's still a chance to buy the hydrogen economy. I might be loading up PPLT.

    Still going up, my pt broke even a week ago. I use spot to calculate the performance of my pm portfolio. Pt premium is crazy. Takes long time. Tests your patience.

    Eventually Pt will beat Au if the H economy takes
    off. They only need 10g pt per car so pt can be $3k and it will still be cheap.

    Pt has been pretty interesting lately. About 3 weeks ago while checking ABC, I noticed it hit @$1198, so has increased @$250 p/oz. Arse could drop out tomorrow, who knows. I couldn't give a 2021 Pt ox away for $1500 this week

    True. I even offered free silver Ox if the buyer paid my asking price. He's back with the herd now.

    I expected some numismatic appreciation on the Pt ox, the way it's going ATM the intrinsic value might get me where I wanted to be. Out of our hands anyway just ride the highs & whinge the lows. Low expectations leads to less disappointment

    Pt premiums are less than silver today for the same dollar amount.

    Looks to be better than silver both fundamentally and technically.
