Palladium is the most industrial of the four major precious metals — over 80% of annual demand goes into catalytic converters for gasoline vehicles. That concentration makes palladium highly sensitive to the auto cycle and to Russian and South African supply, which together account for roughly 80% of global production.
Turkiye
Palladium is industrial-only in the Turkish market.
Palladium (symbol XPD) is quoted in USD per troy ounce on the LPPM and NYMEX. Today's spot works out to $50.44 per gram and $1,569.00 per troy ounce in USD. Liquidity is lower than gold or silver, so bid-ask spreads are wider.
Troy ounce is the international benchmark. Investment bars come in 1 oz and 10 oz sizes; 1 kilogram exists but is rare at retail.
Palladium is less common in jewelry than the other precious metals, but the calculation is identical.
Auto emission standards are everything. Tighter rules in China (China 6) and Europe (Euro 6d) have progressively increased palladium loadings per catalytic converter. Russian supply, which is roughly 40% of global mine output and a byproduct of Norilsk nickel mining, is highly politically sensitive. The rise of electric vehicles is a long-term structural bearish factor — EVs don't need catalytic converters.
Palladium suits experienced commodity investors who understand the auto cycle. Physical options are limited — Canadian Maple and Russian Ballerina coins are the main sovereign options, and bars are mostly available from European refineries. Most retail exposure is via ETFs such as PALL. Storage and insurance costs are higher than gold or silver due to market thinness.
