About the Palladium market

Palladium is a platinum-group metal used mainly in catalytic converters that clean exhaust from petrol-engined cars, and also in electronics, dentistry and chemical processes. Its benchmark US futures contract is Palladium Futures on NYMEX, part of CME Group, under the product code PA. One contract covers 100 troy ounces and is quoted in US dollars and cents per troy ounce. The contract is physically deliverable, and delivered palladium must be a minimum of 99.95% pure.

Because so much palladium goes into autocatalysts, its price is closely tied to car production, the mix of petrol, diesel and electric vehicles, and emissions rules. Supply is concentrated in a small number of mining regions, so disruptions at large mines, trade restrictions and the recycling of old catalytic converters can all move the price. Like other precious metals it can also react to the US dollar and investor demand.
