I think comparisons to precious metals are somewhat silly. Once the specialty PGMs are taken out of the equation (Pd an Rh that both have unique industrial uses) then the average doubling of the precious metals in the last handful of years hardly compares to the quadrupling of housing values during the same time.
Lookup ‘Johnson-Matthey’ for the definition of the acronym.
