Palladium has to be one of the clear winners of the 2022 commodity rally.
Analysts recently raised their price forecast for Q1 2022 to $2,800/oz due to strong demand from the auto sector, which consumes 85 percent of the world’s palladium, and to $2,700/oz by the end of Q2 2022 due to strong demand from the auto sector.

The metal, which is commonly used in catalytic converters, recently skyrocketed to record highs as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and it is now trading 30% higher than it was at the start of the year.

According to Impala Platinum, the world’s biggest maker of platinum bunch metals, the worldwide palladium rally could keep going for a long time given the ongoing business sector elements.
The following are the reasons why palladium will remain strong for a longer period of time:

Last week, the London Platinum and Palladium Market suspended the main two authorize Russian purifiers whose metal can be exchanged the London and Zurich markets.
