Investment demand for platinum remains extremely strong, with market fundamentals continuing to support platinum as a compelling investment.

Gold and Silver outlook

Fritsch noted that gold’s price action since the war started has been counterintuitive to fundamental market beliefs. The precious metal, traditionally seen as an inflation hedge, has fallen even as the global energy crisis pushes consumer prices higher. At the same time, despite the chaos in the Middle East, gold has been unable to attract a safe-haven bid.
However, Fritsch explained that the ...

Gold remains the anchor of the commodity markets

“Precious metals have been the leader, with gold up 92% and silver more than doubling (+152%) since the start of 2025,” Moglia said. “Gold has been supported by persistent central bank purchases which accelerated starting in 2022 following the sanction of Russian foreign exchange reserves. However, 2025 marked an inflection point in the precious metals rally, as speculative momentum flows surged ...

PGMs

After a strong start to the year, Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) have been stuck in a range for the last few months, but according to one research firm, prices across the entire sector are still expected to end the year with solid gains, led by Platinum.

A research team has developed an integrated process combining pure ruthenium-based nano through-silicon via fabrication and extreme all-dry thinning of silicon-on-insulator wafers to support backside power-delivery networks for advanced three-dimensional integrated circuits, according to a new study published in Engineering.

PGM Mining

Johnson Matthey notes in its latest 'PGM Market Report' that platinum demand will exceed supply again this year on the back of firm industrial use and constrained mine supply, while ruthenium and iridium are also expected to be in deficit amid rising demand from the data storage and energy transition sectors.

Silver climbs through $80/toz

Despite the ongoing threat to the global economy posed by the war in Iran, the silver market is attracting renewed investor attention as prices push back above $80 an ounce, with growing expectations that $90 is around the corner.

Silver

A new report from Metal Focus reveals that global silver market remains structurally tight, with elevated prices, a fifth consecutive annual supply deficit in 2025, and ongoing mine and recycling constraints despite modest production growth. At the same time, PV-driven silver demand is falling sharply due to cost pressure and thrifting.

Conventional recycling of CCMs (left) and HyRefine process (right)

In a new recycling process, developed by JM, PGMs are recovered from CCMs without incinerating the perfluorosulfonic acid-based ionomers on which the operation of PEM electrolyzers and fuel cells depend. In a complementary process, developed in parallel by Syensqo, the ionomers are extracted, purified and reconditioned for reuse.

Bull Vs Bear Markets

Opportunistic buyers are starting to emerge in the gold market after the biggest selloff in years, helping to keep bullion’s record-breaking three-year bull run intact.
