Global Copper Demand and Supply Forecast (2011-2015)
Synergyst, Jan 2012, Pages: 80
Unlike other metals, copper is used almost equally for industrial and consumer purposes. Among base metals, red metal had the best demand growth of 2.1% p.a. in the past decade. Due to its balanced demand from industrial and consumer sectors, we believe that copper has more stable demand fundamentals than other metals. In 2010, global economies continued recovery and as a result copper demand grew strongly, particularly in Japan and Europe. We believe that the global demand for copper will continue to grow however; expansion will be far more restrained over the next couple of years. Traditional copper production regions like Peru, Chile and the United States will continue to feature, however higher risk locations like the African continent or Pakistan will gain in importance. Copper focused equity prices continued their downward trend in recent weeks, resulting in a growing gap between the implied equity discounted copper price and the spot price for copper. Synergyst’s “Global Copper Demand and Supply Forecast (2011-2015)” report provides a detailed analysis of copper consumption and production trends with an in-depth focus on key markets and companies.
