Copper prices have reached a record high of $14,437 per tonne, driven by the U.S. imposing 50% import tariffs on copper derivatives and global supply constraints. The U.S. designated copper as a strategic critical mineral under the Trade Expansion Act, leading to significant stockpiling and a shift in global trade dynamics. Additionally, operational disruptions at key South American mines have exacerbated supply shortages, further supporting the price surge.
