This is your Daily Platinum Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

Hello and welcome to the Daily Platinum Price Tracker. I’m Vanessa Clark, here to bring you the most recent news, insights, and trends on the platinum market. Whether you’re a seasoned investor, a commodities enthusiast, or just platinum-curious, you’re in the right place for everything you need to know about this remarkable metal.

Today is Wednesday, October twenty-ninth, twenty twenty-five, and platinum is trading at about one thousand five hundred eighty-one dollars and forty cents per troy ounce. That’s a slight dip from yesterday’s close, down just over three dollars or zero point two percent. Over the last week, platinum has hovered between fifteen sixty-seven and sixteen nineteen per ounce, reflecting a market that’s seen both profit-taking and renewed buying interest. Zooming out, platinum’s price has climbed nearly fifty percent from this time last year, highlighting the incredible volatility and opportunity within this market.

If we look at historical context, platinum’s price soared above two thousand two hundred dollars in two thousand eight but dropped sharply thereafter. Today, it’s trading at a significant discount compared to gold, which is currently above four thousand dollars an ounce. This means the gold-to-platinum price ratio is at an unusually high level, making platinum relatively cheaper for investors. Experts at Natural Resource Stocks have pointed out that platinum’s rarity compared to gold and its vital industrial uses, especially in catalytic converters, adds a unique dynamic to its valuation.

So what’s driving the platinum market right now? Supply constraints due to sanctions on major producers like Russia and ongoing global trade tensions have played a role in its recent rally. Industrial demand from sectors like automotive manufacturing remains strong, though platinum’s price sensitivity makes it vulnerable to shifts in industrial activity. Additionally, global economic uncertainty has led investors to seek out safe-haven assets, lifting not just platinum but gold and silver as well.

Looking ahead, market analysts from Trading Economics and LBMA expect platinum prices to trend slowly upward. Their forecasts see platinum reaching sixteen hundred twelve dollars per ounce by the end of this quarter, and potentially nearing seventeen hundred fifty-six dollars by next year if current economic and geopolitical conditions prevail. While this suggests a positive outlook, investors should remember that platinum—like all commodities—can experience sharp swings due to global events, monetary policy changes, and supply-demand shocks.

For those thinking about investing in platinum, now may be an opportune time to evaluate your options. The historical price ratio to gold, the metal’s industrial importance, and the potential for future supply disruptions all point to platinum’s potential as a value play. If you’re new to commodities investing, it may be helpful to diversify across precious metals and keep a close watch on those supply indicators. Always stay informed about broader political and economic trends, because these inevitably leave their mark on the platinum market.

And before we wrap up, here’s a quick actionable takeaway for today: Watch the gold-to-platinum ratio and pay attention to supply chain news in the automotive and mining sectors. These are the key drivers determining platinum’s short-term volatility and long-term potential.
