How to calculate the polyethylene to palladium ratio
Polyethylene to Palladium ratio = Polyethylene 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 polyethylene — rather than a plain count.
Worked example, live prices: $7,856.00 ÷ $1,351.00 = 5.815. The inverse is 0.1720.
