    Curious, and I know this has probably been discussed before... Take the 2018 Palladium American Eagle ; what happens to the premium as spot price rises? Does it increase too, or disappear? Asking for a friend :)

    huge premiums on collectible bullion decrease with increasing bullion price.

    they can also, but not always, naturally shrink over time. this is what I'm thinking will happen to the APdE's

    And they tend to be melted as they continue to rise in spot.
    Why look for a dedicated buyer when you have a smelter.
    Which reduces the overall number but how would you ever know?

    Yes that package of four Maple Palladium’s would’ve cost you under $1600 a short time ago. She’s looking awful pretty now.

    Looks like Spot is about to put a Pd fork into $1800.

    I read it takes around 100 tons of hard Nickel ore to mine 1 ounce of Pt and Pd.
    Should have bot more back in 2000. I remember $400 for Pt at the coin shows.

    From CNBC today:

    Meanwhile, palladium was up 0.2% at $1,769.73 an ounce, after hitting an all-time high of $1,783.21 earlier in the session.
    "The risks of increased supply or of demand substitution are low in the short term, leaving the market structurally tight. This is conducive to higher prices in the medium term," ANZ said in a note.
    Palladium is crucial in the making of catalytic converters used in exhaust systems of vehicles, and concerns over its supply running out have helped lift prices by more than 41% this year alone, despite a weakening auto sector.
    Platinum fell 0.2% to $881.43 per ounce and silver rose 0.2% to $17.42.

    the near, immediate term overbought situation has cleared. where it goes is biased up, but that doesn't mean it goes straight up from here.

    buy high, sell low (not)

  • MilesWaitsMilesWaits Posts: 5,301 ✭✭✭✭✭

    From CNBC this morning:

    Palladium soared on Monday to hit $1,800 an ounce for the first time ever, extending a record run triggered by a stark supply shortfall, while gold fell nearly 1% on optimism surrounding a U.S.-China deal that pushed stocks to a fresh peak.
    Palladium rose 2.1% to $1,799.59 per ounce as of 11:18 a.m. EDT, having hit a record high of $1,804.08.
    The metal has climbed about 43% so far this year.

    "There's just a persistent, continuing shortage of the metal," said Tai Wong, head of base and precious metals derivatives trading at BMO.
    "The sharp rally does suggest a correction at some stage but the outlook is robust. Palladium could even hit $2,000 next year; perhaps even higher, but the path is unlikely to be smooth."
    Gaping supply shortages will see palladium cement its price premium over platinum next year, a Reuters survey showed.
    Chiefly used in vehicle exhausts to reduce harmful emissions, platinum is favoured for diesel engines and palladium is preferred for gasoline engines.

    excellent stuff from Bachman of BTO! He's really taking care of business!

    I am disappointed Pd was not up with gold today. I wanted to see how far over 1800 it could go

    I think there is limited upside after the run up over the last year for PD.

    I just sold all of the employee stock purchase plan shares (ESPP) in my eTrade account a few minutes ago, so I have around $8,000 to fool around with. Any recommendations >:) ?

    It’s my wife company (financial services) and it’s not doing great right now. Earnings are being reported next week.

    Stock is down this year, insiders have net sold shares over the last quarter or two and there have been about 400 layoffs in her division of 2,700 since May. Since she (we) gets to purchase the stock on the lower of the first/last day of the quarter and at a 15% discount, we’re still making free money.

    This is play around money for us, so I’m going to teach her how to read a stock quote, execute trades and other “101” stuff. Will probably split the money in half and do a little competition to get her interested.

    Platinum appears to be making a for-real move up. Been awhile since it's threatened $950.

    Relative to the other metals, I still think that platinum is a bargain. Probably silver is too.

    I agree on platinum being a bargain particularly at $800 where I bought a little Pt Dragon.

    Norlisk Nickel is the World's largest producer or Pd and pays a nice dividend around 10%.

    I noticed that. What's going on? Is it an end of year thing?

  • dpooledpoole Posts: 5,940 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I expect it's a combination of the perceived partial thaw in the US/China tariff war, and the strong retail sales numbers that were reported for the Christmas season.

  • streeterstreeter Posts: 4,312 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Mr Poole, wouldn't those two factors make the USD appear stronger & drive the price of metals lower?
    I'm confused.
