RT looks at the Platinum market where the price has been under pressure for the better part of a decade due to various factors including "dieselgate" as well as a persistent supply overhang. The podcast examines the relative pricing of the metal versus Palladium and the recent emergence of substitution from Palladium back to Platinum among auto catalyst manufacturers. The show then discusses the outlook for platinum going forward, including its "green" potential as the world transitions away from carbon -based transportation and power generation.
