Another day another drop. Won't be long before these scrap cores won't be worth the blade it takes to salvage one. The constant push for more EV vehicles and the opening of the mines over seas post covid has really affected the market. A peice that I once could pay $165 for is now around $40 to put it in perspective.

Precious metal market got destroyed yesterday. I've seen worse but this isn't good. Check out the hit silver took. The gold and silver part doesn't effect converter market but none of it is a good sign.

Haven't did a market update in a long time. But I'll be sharing today's market prices along side a post I made September 2021. You'll notice rhodium has declined around 60 percent since then. And palladium has nearly dropped to half value from then. Palladium actually reached over 3k an ounce in spring 2022 losing roughly 70% of it's market value in just 2 short years. In 2021 pallidum was was valued at double platinum market price at one point. Now we are seeing a shift in the market as platinum value passes palladium for the first time In years.

Yesterday's market was rough. The downward trend continues. For example a peice I checked the day before scrap valued at 79 it was 69 after this movement. All peices have different percentagess of the bottom 3 metals but that was that certain peice and how yesterday's market effected it.

The first pic is this morning. The other pic is a post I did February 3 of this year. Check out the bid price on the bottom 3 metals to give you an idea of what the market has done this partial year only. Pallidum is down about 30 percent and rhodium is down about 60% in less than a years time.

Another rough day for PGMs and sad to post this update on the current market conditions. The push by our current administration for EV vehicles I'm sure isn't helping.

Back to Back days now. No bottom in sight.

Finally a day with some green movement. The last year has been a steep decline of roughly 50 percent. So some price increase is always good to see.
