[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 2981613, member: 4373"]The article is updated this year. The question that I have is how much is real demand and how much is speculation. If you remember the time when palladium prices went out of control - Ford had to write off more than 1 billion dollars in bad betting. Would you be the gambler? Hunt brothers and silver? As far as I'm concerned, how much how rare a certain element is in particular industrial metals - if the prices go rocket high, engineers will always come up with alternatives to use something cheaper. Remember the times when people would cut and steal copper wires? Replaced with copper plated aluminum wires. Silver in photography? It's mostly digital these days... Yes you can start your lecture on the amount of precious metals that are being used in catalyst exhausts. But are they really required on electric cars or hydrogen fuel cars???
