            Demand is rising for


            platinum and palladium


            Platinum and palladium are 30 times rarer than gold. Every single
            electrical gadget or tech toy you own will contain a trace of these
            five elements. Often found in things such as reducing vehicle
            emission, jet engines, electronics, dental work, medical tools,
            pacemakers, cancer-fighting drugs or jewellery. Not only that,
            but the investment case for both platinum and palladium is only
            beginning…Platinum and palladium are 30 times rarer than gold.

          Russian Gold Exchange

          Announced Plans to Boost

          Gold Trading



           Further to announcing closer partnership with the London
           Metal Exchange (LME), the Moscow Exchange now plans to
           provide further boost to its gold trading activities.

           The recent association with the LME allows participants to
           trade spot gold at London prices by using its own clearing
           systems, thus making trading easier. The exchange plans to
           enter into a similar partnership with Shanghai Gold Exchange,
           which it expects to be finalized possibly by next year.
