FXStreet reports that strategists at OCBC Bank see copper testing a high of $8,800/mt at the end of the next year.
“Copper demand may have yet to peak vis-à-vis steel, while supply also remains a big concern, given the concentration of production in South American economies.”
“It remains a question mark if the under-investment in copper mine CAPEX could impede mining output beyond 2021.”
“We think copper may peak at $8,800/mt by end 2021.”
