Edward Sterck of the World Platinum Investment Council breaks down platinum supply, demand and price dynamics in 2026.

While this year's platinum market deficit is expected to be much smaller than 2025's record shortfall of over a million ounces, many of the precious metal's key drivers are still set to impact the sector moving forward.

"A lot of those themes behind the price run last year are still in play this year, and really arguably for the foreseeable future," he said.
