Spread context

The gold/platinum spread helps show whether platinum is behaving like a contrarian industrial metal or a defensive precious metal.

Demand mix

Gold is more monetary and reserve-driven. Platinum is more tied to autocatalysts, industrial use, supply risk, and substitution.

Dashboard workflow

Track the spread beside PGM ratios and portfolio allocation before treating an inversion as actionable.
