Gold set to regain premium to platinum later this year

Substantial production cuts have been announced today by Anglo American Platinum, the world’s largest platinum producer. As a result, the price of platinum has risen above that of gold for the first time since last March. However, we don’t expect this to last. Instead, we expect gold prices to rise to at least $2,000 per oz. in 2013 while platinum prices are unlikely to sustain gains above $1,700.
