And overall foreign holdings of Treasuries fell by $591 billion in the latest 12 months,” reports Randall Forsyth for . “The Fed’s massive securities purchases fueled a $4.2 trillion explosion in the broad M2 money supply in the year through February.

SPPP provides “a secure, convenient and exchange-traded investment alternative for investors who want to hold physical platinum and palladium. The Trust offers a number of compelling advantages over traditional exchange-traded platinum and palladium funds,” according to the issuer. With the global economy shaking off the ill effects of the coronavirus pandemic, palladium could be a winning precious metal in the back half of 2021. Some commodities market observers are already forecasting more upside for the metal. “Palladium did a return to point of breakout, close to the November and January highs at 2516.51/2511.03, before heading back up again,” according to Commerzbank. “Since the decline from the current March high at 2758.00 looks corrective and can be subdivided into three smaller waves a, b and c, we expect the current advance to rise above the 2758.00 high towards the 2020 peak and all-time high at 2878.04.” ....

Gold Blues as Silver Woos February was a tough month for gold, which marked its worst monthly performance since November 2016. Spot gold fell $114/oz, or 6.15%, to close the month at $1,734/oz. Half of this decline came in the two final days of February, as bond selling spiked into near panic mode and triggered a multi-asset sell-off into month-end. Figure 1 shows how gold has been inversely correlated to bond yields. February’s pullback occurred on the back of various developments.
