Looks interesting. I'm actually rotating out of equities, including GDX, and Pt. group is something I am looking at. Ezcom is hiking electricity prices 45% a year in SA, with SA controlling 80% of Pt. production. Not sure about Pd. The demand side is also in question, US car sales are hitting a brick wall after cash for clunkers, but both India and China are climbing fast. Looking at valuations, I think the gold group is overvalued along with the broad market, so physical should lead the gold mania, IMHO.

"Over half of the world's annual supply of palladium comes from Russia...and the amount and status of Russian palladium supplies are state secrets. In the past, Russia has routinely withheld supplies of palladium from world markets for its own political and/or economic gain, resulting in very large and very fast fluctuations in palladium prices. It is this historical range of prices, and the price differential between palladium and platinum at any given time, that gives palladium its attractive investment potential. The price of palladium has been, and could again be, extremely volatile, providing investors with a significant opportunity for speculative profit." -monex
