Platinum Range/Short Idea

120
Along with the fundamentals supporting a weaker PL and no significant change in daily warehouse stock data for Platinum and Palladium. A neutral or slightly bearish approach might be the way for today.

Platinum Demand Breakdown (approx):
Sector Share (%)
Auto (catalysts) ICE ~35–40%
Jewelry ~25–30%
Industrial (chem, glass, petro) ~20%
Investment ~5–10%
Other (medical, etc) <5%

Supporting news:
- Used Car Sales Are At Their Strongest Since 2021
- The United States saw strong automobile sales in March as consumers rushed to buy before tariffs would kick in but the outlook looks gloomy afterwards. POOR SALES EXPECTED AFTER NEAR-TERM BUMP. ( My comment: Those cars were build months/year ago car manufacturing cutting production already)
- Major car brand cuts production of popular model in response to Donald Trump's harsh auto tariffs
