Palladium Pushes To 8-Mo. High; More Upside Likely

(Kitco News) - Palladium futures on Thursday scored an eight-month highof $1,053.40, as of this writing at mid-morning. The palladium bulls have thesolid near-term technical advantage to suggest still more gains in the nearterm, including a likely challenge soon of the all-time high of $1,111.15scored in January of this year. Fundamentally, reports say the sharp gains inpalladium recently are mainly due to stockpiling of the precious metal by Chinadue to a trade war with the U.S. and its associated uncertainties going forward, and because China is likely to ramp up its vehicle production in the comingyears.
