Copper is approaching record highs because both the US and China are aggressivel
Created
Thesis
Copper is approaching record highs because both the US and China are aggressively pulling physical metal out of warehouses at the same time, creating a genuine supply shortage. While most headlines focus on tech and AI, this quiet bidding war means anyone holding copper or the companies that mine it is sitting on a scarce resource that buyers desperately need. When stockpiles fall this fast and demand comes from both sides of the globe simultaneously, prices tend to keep climbing until new supply finally comes online — which takes years, not weeks.
