  1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report The expected monetary policy of the Federal Reserve will cause the price performance of platinum, which has stronger financial attributes, to outperform palladium. The speech at the Jackson Hole Central Bank Annual Meeting set the tone for an interest - rate cut in the September policy meeting. Considering the weakening of the US labor market and the Fed's stance, there may be more than three interest - rate cuts in the remaining policy meetings of this year. In this context, platinum prices are expected to continue to perform better than palladium, and the strategy suggests buying platinum on dips [9]. 3.
