Resolves YES if the World Platinum Investment Council (WPIC) forecasts a platinum deficit exceeding 26 metric tonnes for 2025 in their official reports published by February 09, 2027. The primary source for resolution will be the WPIC's 'Platinum Quarterly' reports, accessible through their official website. Currently, the WPIC projects a deficit of 26 mt for 2025, highlighting ongoing supply challenges amid declining mine and recycling supplies. This threshold is significant as it reflects potential market pressures and price impacts, especially given the previous year's larger-than-expected deficit. Clarification: The forecast must be explicitly stated in WPIC's official publications, not inferred from other data.

Market seems underpriced because the question’s threshold (26 koz) is tiny relative to WPIC’s existing 2025 deficit forecasts; the real risk is not whether there’s a deficit, but whether unprecedented revisions shrink it by hundreds of thousands of ounces.

The market seems to be pricing the question as if it referred to WPIC’s final view on the 2025 balance, but textually it resolves YES as soon as any WPIC forecast for 2025 shows a deficit >26 mt, which has already happened (848 koz ≈26.4 t).
