Platinum Price FAQ
- How much is 1 ounce of platinum worth today?
The platinum price fluctuates continuously during market hours. See the live platinum price above for the current value per ounce.
- What determines the platinum price?
Platinum prices are driven primarily by automotive demand (catalytic converters for diesel vehicles), jewelry fabrication, and industrial applications in chemicals, glass, and electronics. Supply is highly concentrated in South Africa (about 70% of global output) and Russia, making platinum sensitive to mining disruptions and geopolitical risk.
- Why is platinum cheaper than gold?
Platinum traded above gold for decades until 2015. The shift was driven by declining diesel vehicle sales in Europe (reducing catalytic converter demand), increased recycling supply, and surging investment demand for gold. Whether platinum returns to a premium depends on hydrogen fuel cell adoption and supply constraints.
