COMEX platinum registered stocks are thinly traded compared to gold and silver but closely watched by auto-catalyst hedgers. Low float makes the market susceptible to sharp inventory-driven price moves.

Glossary

Registered inventory

Metal in COMEX-approved vaults that has been certified (warranted) for delivery against a futures contract. This is the headline deliverable number.

Eligible inventory

Metal meeting COMEX purity/bar standards stored in approved vaults but not yet warranted. Can be converted to registered with paperwork.

Delivery squeeze

When open interest (futures contracts outstanding) approaches or exceeds registered inventory, holders of longs can force physical delivery, driving sharp price spikes.

Stop/issue

A stop is taking delivery of metal; an issue is making delivery. The daily stop/issue report tracks who is delivering and receiving.

Common questions

What is the current COMEX registered Platinum inventory?

COMEX registered Platinum inventory stood at 195.8K oz as of July 27, 2026, per the daily COMEX warehouse report. That is 49.1% of the 398.9K oz held in COMEX-approved vaults; the rest is eligible stock not yet warranted. Registered stock carries a warrant and is deliverable against COMEX futures, so it is the supply cushion traders watch.

What is the gold/silver ratio?

The gold/silver ratio is the price of one ounce of gold divided by the price of one ounce of silver — it tells you how many ounces of silver it takes to buy one ounce of gold. A higher ratio means silver is relatively cheaper to gold; a lower ratio means the opposite. Stackers watch it as a relative-value gauge between the two metals.

What is the difference between registered and eligible inventory?

Registered metal carries a warehouse warrant and can be delivered against a futures contract immediately. Eligible metal meets exchange specs and sits in the same approved vaults but has no active warrant, so it is not deliverable until its owner registers it. Registered is deliverable now; eligible is on the sidelines.

How many grams are in a troy ounce?

One troy ounce equals 31.1035 grams, slightly heavier than a regular (avoirdupois) ounce of 28.35 grams. Precious metals are always quoted in troy ounces, so COMEX inventory and spot prices on this site use troy ounces.

What do contango and backwardation mean in COMEX futures?

Contango means metal for delivery next month costs more than metal in the front month, the normal state, because storing and financing metal has a cost. Backwardation is the reverse: the front month costs more than the next month out, which usually signals near-term tightness in physical supply.
