EXCLUSIVE: Key Indicator May Flip Global Economic Forecasts — 'Copper Is Beginning To Define Its Own Narrative'
Portfolio Pulse from Matt Whittaker
Copper's role in the global economy is evolving due to its critical role in the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables. Eric Saderholm of American Pacific Mining Corp. (USGDF) highlights copper's decoupling from other industrial metals like aluminum and zinc, driven by an anticipated acute supply shortage. This shortage, exacerbated by the demand for electrification, is expected to lead to a deficit of 1.3 million metric tons by 2027, with a 20% shortfall projected by 2031 despite efforts in mining and recycling. By 2045, global demand could double, making copper a unique market with its own investment narrative.
