Palladium poised for record year in 2014, again in 2015

Palladium will reach its highest yearly price on record this year and could top that in 2015 as expectations for lower South African output combine with a recovery in demand and doubts over Russian supply, a Reuters poll showed. Palladium, which has averaged $777 an ounce in the first half, is expected to average $805.50 an ounce in the full year, up more than 10 percent from 2013 and its highest since Reuters data began in 1984, a survey of 31 analysts and traders showed.
