some pre downers, LULU
Wondering why platinum taking dump. Pal metal was up yest on the
S Africa difficulties so odd plat would turn. Workers want 3yr not 5yr deal in S Africa pal. Plat is Russian control.
But S African platium miners in talks so guess outlook is ok.
*MW July platinum down $35.10, or 2.3%, to $1,446.90/oz
