Besides catalytic converters, what other things is Platinum used for? Electronics?

I've heard of platinum blondes.

Fine, go long platinum if you buy this whole recovery narrative, but short gold? Look, if the SHTF or we start seeing sovereign debt defaults (Greece, for starters), and the EU fracturing, people are going to pile into what metal?

Any metal that produces ammo.
