❓ Introduction to Platinum (XPT):
⚪️ Platinum is a silver-white metal, highly resistant to heat and corrosion. Its use is not only decorative; it is a critical industrial metal.
⚪️ Unlike gold, which is mainly a store of value, platinum combines three roles: industrial metal, technological metal, and investment asset.
⚪️ Main uses of platinum:
1️⃣ Automotive industry (largest consumer): Used in catalytic converters to reduce emissions
2️⃣ Chemical and refining industries: Due to its high resistance to extreme temperatures
3️⃣ Jewelry
4️⃣ Clean energy and hydrogen applications
🤔 Why is platinum important?
⚪️ About 70% of global platinum production comes from South Africa, making its supply limited and sensitive to geopolitical risks.
⚪️ This limited supply can lead to sudden price spikes.
