The platinum price is determined by demand and supply.
Because platinum is seen as a store of value, its spot price is continually fluctuating due to reasons such as:
- Supply and demand in the market
- Threats of inflation or deflation, real or perceived
- Variations in the exchange rate
- The state of the world
- Current events in politics
Supply is particularly tight in the platinum market. The metal is very rare (gold is 30 times less rare) and 70% of the mined supply comes from one country: South Africa. This means that the supply and, therefore, price is extremely sensitive to any political or economic upset that goes on in this country. When looking at the 10 year platinum price chart you might be able to spot the South African miner strike that went on for some time.
Demand is hugely affected by the automotive sector. You will see that the majority of demand for industrial platinum comes from the automotive sector looking to use it in catalytic converters. The metal is used to oxidize hazardous gasses into less toxic gasses.
Due to market pressures, the price of platinum fluctuates on a minute-by-minute basis. You can watch the 10 year platinum price chart in the currency of your choosing on the GoldCore platinum price chart, and keep informed no matter how frequently the value changes.
