Platinum and palladium have managed to buck the downward trend

Platinum and palladium have managed to buck the downward trend that has permeated the precious complex as a significant portion of the Asian market remains on holiday for the Chinese New Year. Platinum closed Monday’s rather quiet session below the psychological level of $1700 but has since found some bargain hunting support that has pushed the white metal to $1707 at the moment. Palladium is up $10 from yesterday’s close and now trades at $769. The rest of the complex seems to have stopped the hemorrhaging for now, perhaps supported by reports of North Korean chest thumping. The super secretive nation is said to have detonated a nuclear device yesterday. Nothing noteworthy on the economic data front for today. Have a great day!
