Global Copper Market Expected to Reach $548 Billion By 2034 as Bullish Sentiment is Projected Long Term

Palm Beach, FL – August 6, 2024 – FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – In the global copper market, the demand for copper is projected to increase in coming years. An article in Forbes said: “The world is running short of copper, and companies and countries are scrambling. This essential metal, a staple of civilization going back to the bronze age, is the lifeblood of existing energy infrastructure and cutting-edge technology. Unfortunately, it faces a projected supply shortfall by 2025 with projections showing a 20% price jump by May 2027. Annual demand will surge to 36.6 million metric tons by 2031, up from 25.3 million in 2021.”  Another article in industry source, MetalMiner added: “… the world knows that although the current global copper reserves are sufficient to meet demand, extraction continues to lag behind consumption. As a result, many inside and outside the copper market fear there will be a shortage in the coming years.   Predictions say that the annual global demand for copper will increase by about 40% by 2040. There are multiple factors fueling this expected growth, including the global move toward renewable energy and sustainable transportation. Given this current environment, any developments around copper and its mining remain guaranteed to hit the headlines.” Active Companies mentioned in the article includes:  Brixton Metals Corporation (OTCQB: BBBXF) (TSX-V: BBB),BHP Group Limited (NYSE: BHP), Ivanhoe Electric Inc. (NYSE: IE) (TSX: IE), Western Copper and Gold Corporation (NYSE: WRN) (TSX: WRN), Copper Fox Metals Inc. (OTCQX: CPFXF) (TSX-V: CUU).

A report from Precedence Research projected that the global copper market size was USD 318.19 billion in 2023, calculated at USD 333.15 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach around USD 548.20 billion by 2034, expanding at a CAGR of 5.11% from 2024 to 2034.  The report continued: “The copper market is a pivotal component within the global economic landscape. Copper, a highly conductive metal with applications spanning various sectors such as electronics, construction, and transportation, plays a fundamental role in contemporary technological advancements, including electric vehicles, telecommunications, and sustainable energy solutions. The market’s vitality depends on factors like infrastructure development, industrial performance, and the evolution of cutting-edge technologies.  Moreover, the increasing emphasis on environmental sustainability has elevated the significance of copper recycling practices. Consequently, the copper market retains its prominence, demonstrating resilience and adaptability while continuing to evolve in response to changing economic and ecological demands.  The Asia Pacific copper market size was valued at USD 124.09 billion in 2023 and is expected to surpass USD 213.80 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 5.30% from 2024 to 2034.”
