Silver\u2019s critical status moved it into an active Section 232 review in 2025; palladium remains exposed as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q2: Why did U.S. futures trade so far above London spot earlier in 2025?<\/strong><br>Markets <strong>front-ran<\/strong> potential tariffs. When <strong>COMEX-traded forms were exempted<\/strong> in April, spreads collapsed\u2014perhaps <strong>too far<\/strong> given renewed policy pathways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q3: How might palladium tariffs filter into car prices?<\/strong><br>Catalytic converters contain <strong>2\u20137 grams<\/strong> of palladium. Tariffs raise converter input costs; OEMs may absorb some costs short-term but could pass along increases over time. Longer term, <strong>platinum substitution<\/strong> and <strong>recycling<\/strong> may accelerate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q4: Could silver tariffs hurt solar and electronics?<\/strong><br>Yes. Silver is indispensable in <strong>PV cells<\/strong>, high-end <strong>electronics<\/strong>, and <strong>medical\/defense<\/strong>. Tariffs would flow into component costs unless mitigated by thrifting, substitution, or domestic supply growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q5: What should a bullion buyer do before October?<\/strong><br>Audit inventory and hedges, <strong>map policy dates<\/strong>, maintain liquidity, and consider <strong>micro-precision hedging<\/strong>.
