CME data: October 2026 delivery intentions for palladium and platinum

what happened

CME Group published delivery intention data for October 2026 palladium and platinum futures traded on NYMEX. The formal notices were filed on October 15, 2026, and delivery is expected on October 19, 2026.

For palladium, 5 contracts were issued by sellers and 5 were stopped by buyers that day, bringing the month-to-date total to 86. For platinum, 56 contracts were issued and 56 were stopped, with 337 month to date. The data comes from ru.tradingview.com, citing CME Group.

why it matters

Such reports show how many contracts move toward physical delivery of metal rather than being settled in cash. Rising month-to-date totals can point to interest in physical metal, but a single day's figures do not give the full picture of the precious metals market.
