PalladiumXPD/USD

Palladium is a rare precious metal used mainly in catalytic converters for petrol vehicles. Its price is driven by industrial demand from the auto sector and by tight, geographically concentrated mine supply, which has historically made it one of the most volatile precious metals. It does not behave like a traditional safe haven — it tracks industrial cycles and auto-market trends. Palladium trades through futures, spot markets and ETFs. Its sharp price swings mean risk must be managed carefully.
