As of 9:00 AM ET on Monday, April 13, 2026, the spot price of platinum is $2,040.20 per ounce. This reflects a 1.89% decrease from Friday morning’s price of $2,079.40. Platinum is currently caught between two major forces: supply deficits in South Africa and a strengthening U.S. dollar that has dampened the entire precious metals sector. Analysts remain focused on a potential 2026 supply shortfall of approximately 23 tons, which may limit further downside in the coming weeks.
