Go platinum.....it makes no sense to a PM novice(that's me) that gold should be more valuable than platinum! After all, just do a search on extracting platinum.....it's amazing how little platinum comes from the ore.

Serious question. What did you see that was so impressive?
I was just responding to the overall rise for all of the metals, and platinum gained strongly on gold, which was having a decent day itself.
Of course, that was then, and today was less impressive.
Then I snap out of it and remember what Baley referred to in his post, " the ~1% rise in metals yesterday (due in part to the relative gain of the Euro to the dollar)".
Sometimes I forget that it really is about the dollar most of the time, although I'm still impressed that platinum hung on today. Go! Platinum!

A difference of $13.50! (Still in gold's favor). This is still peanuts, considering that platinum ought to be at least double what the price of gold is.

Plat will be worth more than gold this year. And perhaps next. But Plat probably wont exceed 1900. Unless the speculators want to have some fun. It is a VERY thin market, and UNDEROWNED.

<< <i>Platinum has been more valuable than gold consistently for some time now, currently about +$27, do folks expect this spread to shrink or grow? >>
Yes, folks do expect the spread to shrink or grow, the PM market is always moving.
I expect the price of platinum to increase its spread over the price of gold as the economy continues to improve. Platinum is both rarer than gold and in greater industrial demand.
It would seem to be a "no brainer" but with PMs you never know.

The question remains - which one will come out of this intersection on top?

I guess that answers the question for the time being.

the post was referring to the ~1% rise in metals yesterday (due in part to the relative gain of the Euro to the dollar)
giving it back today.. in fact, I've gained and lost the same few percent on my metals investments for going on 2 years now... treading water...
