How to calculate the lithium to palladium ratio
Lithium to Palladium ratio = Lithium price per Metric Ton ÷ Palladium price per Troy Ounce
The two legs use different units, so the result is a rate — Troy Ounces of palladium per Metric Ton of lithium — rather than a plain count.
Worked example, live prices: $160,500.00 ÷ $1,353.10 = 118.6. The inverse is 0.008431.
