Kitco NEWS Platinum to Retake Gold’s Premium? Why It’s The ‘Next Metal To Move’
The US economy is flashing contradictory signals. While consumer retail sales have stalled and delinquency rates hit near-decade highs, financial assets are moving at historic speeds. US equity markets are seeing daily turnover surpass $1 trillion, and gold is holding firm in the $5,000 range.
Will Rhind, Founder and CEO of GraniteShares, joins Jeremy Szafron to explain why this disconnect is happening and who is actually driving the volume. Rhind argues that the US has become the global liquidity sink for the world's capital, with international investors forced to trade US names to access the AI trade. He also breaks down a massive anomaly in the silver market, where ETF volume recently exceeded the S&P 500, and makes the case for Platinum as the "next metal to move" given its historic 50% discount to gold.
