Palladium is used for catalytic converters in petrol vehicles, while platinum is for diesel-powered vehicles.

Should you diversify your portfolio by investing in Palladium in GBP?

Palladium, like other precious metals such as silver and gold, can help you diversify your investment portfolio. This is because different assets, such as commodities, stocks and bonds, often perform differently under a range of market conditions. During economic volatility, such as recessions and/or high inflation, many investors are inclined to transfer some of their wealth to commodities, including precious metals, which can often increase in value when stocks and shares fall in value.

The most important thing to remember is to spread your investments across different regions, sectors and asset classes, rather than putting all your eggs in one basket.

What's the palladium price in the UK going to be in the future?

The USD-GBP forex rate will also have a big impact on the palladium price GBP as well. For example:

• If GBP strengthens against USD, this will make palladium (and other precious metals) more affordable for UK investors, potentially boosting demand here.
• If GBP weakens against USD, this will limit the purchasing power of UK investors, which could reduce demand for the precious metal in this market.

What else influences the palladium price in the UK?

The value of palladium in GBP is also influenced by other economic indicators, such as the performance of the UK economy, inflation, interest rates, employment data, and other global economic indicators, all of which can impact the strength of GBP.
