Palladium ETF Still Top Performer For 2010

Despite the strong rally in silver recently the Palladium ETF remains the top performer since it's inception last January. Up over 60% it has been trading in lock step with SLV lately but still maintains a 10% lead in overall performance this year.



The Platinum ETF remains the weakest of the metal complex barely showing a gain at all since it's inception on the same day as palladium. Platinum was apparently over priced in relation to the other metals and those who have been buying the weakest precious metal hoping for a catch up rally have been disappointed thus far. If this precious metal rally continues from here however, there is little doubt that Platinum should participate going forward.
