Platinum vs Palladium.

My own personal opinion is that Platinum has a much more established market base and is likely to be easier to sell later. I have more platinum than palladium for just that reason.
 
if you are happy to keep them in vault with the dealer, then Palladium would be the one to move first
since you can not take it out, selling them back online would be as easy as buying it

but if you want to slowly buying and keeping them, Platinum would have a much better performance over longer period of time

now Palladium cost $400 per ounce more than Platinum
Gold and Palladium is near parity

Pt is at support
Pd is at resistance

just by looking at the change each day, the best mover is 1.Palladium, 2.Gold then 3.Platinum

? to ask. is the bear market for Platinum going to end soon
is the Bull market in Palladium going to continue ?
 
What industrial uses are there for palladium other than catalytic converters and spark plugs?

What will happen when the world goes electric, platinum still has jewellery and in jewellery platinum still has a perceived higher value over gold by the biggest consumers aka females.

Note: pretty sure there are others uses but those are what I know

I've only recently become aware of how much women value platinum in jewellery. It's got a surprisingly high status, much higher then gold. I doubt many of them know Platinum cost a fair bit less then gold. :)

Platinum is for sure the better investment going forwards over palladium.

I did some research on this when pt was around $780. Pt jewellery is more expensive because it is used in higher percentage (like 95%) as compared with gold which is often mixed with a lot of base metals (~20%). On top of that, Pt is denser than gold so more Pt in weight is required to create the same size gold wedding band.

Overall, Pt may compete with gold if cheap enough because white gold is popular among east asians.

have to disagree on the last point, it is possible for Pt to drop another 50% from 800 to 400, while Pd to double from 1000 to 2000
then reverse the relations, so it is good to swap around if we have the opportunity

right now the only metal that move like a precious metal is Palladium $20+ a day move
Platinum moves like 50 cents

must consider all possibilities

It sure is possible. It is also possible that palladium drops 50% while platinum doubles in price. All i can tell you is atm palladium is over valued, but what i can't tell you is when it will correct. Best you can do is flip a coin.

Anyway for me looking at these charts and understanding the use case for both metals, i would be much more comfortable buying platinum over palladium. Having said all that, i don't own either. (well i do have 1 platypus coin)

what if Russia release 5% into the Pd market again? just like the last time.
both Pd and Pt would crash further lower, there would be no profit to make.
