Copper Prices are Reflecting a Supply Scarcity That Doesn’t Currently Exist

Over the last year, we’ve seen various warnings of a copper shortage, which have led the metal’s price to new highs. This is different from recent figures, which show that the biggest metal exchanges globally currently hold over 1.1 million metric tons of the red metal. This is quite a feat, especially considering holdings are at their highest in over two decades. While the majority of holdings were held by warehouses in the U.S. in 2025, the Shanghai Futures Exchange and London Metal Exchange (LME) warehouses have recorded huge inflows since this year began. Since the start of the year, worldwide exchange inventory has increased by 300,000 tons, suggesting that the red metal’s rally has constrained demand from the…

Copper Demand to Drop as Chinese Buyers Extend Annual Lunar Holiday

Chinese copper purchasers are lengthening their Lunar New Year holiday as prices hover near record levels, dampening industrial demand for the red metal. Shanghai Wooray Metals’ General Manager Wang Wei explained that the recent surge has raised financing pressures for copper pipe and rod manufacturers and shrunk their order volumes. Although the holiday officially starts next Monday and runs through February 23rd, Wang noted that the slowdown in demand is expected to set in fully this week. Buyers in China, the largest consumer of physical copper globally, have been reluctant to follow last year’s price rally amid a weakening domestic economy. Longer factory shutdowns during the holiday are expected to weigh further on market momentum, after investor-driven…

What Experts Say About the Possibility of Silver Rallying to $200 This Year

Over the past year, the metals market has undergone dramatic changes, with precious-metal prices surging to record levels. Gold, for instance, climbed from around $3,000 an ounce in 2025 to more than $5,400 an ounce earlier this year. Silver followed a similar trajectory, rising from roughly $30 an ounce to over $100 during the same period. Although silver has since pulled back slightly from its peak, the fundamental factors driving its rally remain firmly in place. As a result, some experts believe the metal could reach $200 an ounce later this year. Below, we examine the reasoning behind these forecasts. Birch Gold Group financial market strategist Peter Reagan explains that while hitting $200 is within the realm of possibility, it would require circumstances well beyond…
