Core Viewpoint - Global copper supply is facing disruptions, particularly due to incidents at the El Teniente copper mine in Chile, which will affect future production capacity increases. Additionally, Zambia's copper output has declined in Q2 due to acid leaks and lower ore grades. Despite being in a low-demand season, strong demand from the power grid and new energy sectors, along with low domestic social inventory, is supporting copper prices. The expectation of a stable increase in copper prices is bolstered by supply constraints, potential interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, and the upcoming demand peak in September and October. Furthermore, the domestic rare earth industry is experiencing strong demand, leading to rising prices, particularly in the permanent magnet sector, which is expected to see performance improvements by Q3 2025 [1].
