German term or phrase: bei Platin und Palladium
Ausgelöst wurde der Aufwärtstrend durch spekulative Käufe bei Platin und Palladium, die auch dem Goldpreis Impulse gaben.

Sind Platin und Palladium hier die Metalle (platinum and palladium) oder handelt es sich Eurer Meinung nach um Aktiennamen? Ich glaube eher, die Metalle sind gemeint, oder?

Explanation:
Yes, it's the metals. In certain market conditions investors turn their attention towards precious metals, which can be less volatile than shares. This means not just gold, but also platinum and palladium.
