PPLT tracks the spot price of platinum with its physically held platinum bars, located in JPMorgan vaults in London and Zurich. The underlying metal is priced off the London Platinum and Palladium specifications for good delivery, so expect a close relationship with spot prices. PALL is structured as a grantor trust preventing trustees from lending the underlying metal. On April 27, 2018, Aberdeen purchased the fund from issuer, ETF Securities.

platinum Let's talk about #platinum.
What is platinum? Until a long time ago, it was a rare, scarce metal that was used in jewelry and some other technical applications.
It is still scarce but now its use is necessary in electric vehicle batteries. Almost all production is concentrated in #SouthAfrica.

Platinum (PPLT) rejects the 100 DMA....Dollar fell last week giving a bump last week but the 100 DMA was a cap looking for the PPLT to test the lower bound of an envelope....This would be a possible buying opportunity when the stock market corrects and get to a more buyable washout. Maybe we test 83 then 79 and if really bad news strikes
Shark?Or a Cypher. It depends when this reverses but I am watching both levels.
A shark can also go to the 1.113. The Cypher terminates at the .786 but is not as common as a shark.
Peak 2 is higher than peak 1.
Watching and thx again to nuggetrouble (o"

Double Bottom on the horizonI wish gold and silver looked as good. Given where it's started, 50 will be a fantastic place for investors, esp for newbs who are looking for a place to start slow, and build. The only thing is, the liquidity of this Aberdeen fund is thin and often volatile. Much success.
