Deep Dive: Platinum Pullback Seen as Healthy After Prolonged Surge
Platinum rose by 127% in 2025, reaching a new all-time high of $2,125/oz in early January 2026, before partially correcting. The absolute peak was reached on January 26, 2026, at $2,920/oz, from which a significant correction began.
The correction, however, found support. In recent weeks, Platinum has stabilized around $2,000/oz, maintaining a 112% gain compared to January 2024. The World Platinum Investment Council noted that, despite the correction, the structural factors that drove the all-time high remain intact. WPIC’s analysis had been clear regarding the January peak: the price had diverged from fundamentals by more than $500/oz, according to their attribution model (PPAM), making the correction expected and, ultimately, healthy.
Today, with the spot price around $2,085/oz, the market is in a more rational zone, aligned with fundamental drivers.
