The copper price is making progress

The all-time high for the price of the reddish metal is USD 5.199 per pound. There has been an upward trend since February 2025. In other words, the copper price rose above the significant USD 10,000 per tonne mark to USD 10,049.40. What is driving copper prices are, on the one hand, the proposed tariffs by US President Trump, which are causing uncertainty. On the other hand, this has led to concerns about potential supply shortages and rising costs for participants who need copper for production. Many industrial sectors such as construction, transportation and electronics rely on the metal. Copper prices have risen by around 14% since the beginning of 2025. Analysts see potential for copper in the short, medium and long term.

Copper is one of the metals without which the booming technologization of our planet would not be possible. If the copper price heads towards new highs, this will be a positive development for companies that have copper in their projects. If we look at China, an important consumer country, two producers have just announced that they are cutting back on the processing of copper ores. This is because large production volumes from China's leading copper smelters have driven down processing fees. They want to counteract this. If the growth target of five percent set by China for 2025 becomes reality, and China is doing a lot to achieve this, copper should be in high demand. China has set itself a debt target of four percent this year (previously it was three percent). Economic stimulus packages worth billions are intended to boost the real estate market, among other things.
