Copper Price Forecast: UBS anticipates a significant rise in copper prices, projecting $11,500 per ton by March 2026 and $13,000 by year-end, driven by supply disruptions and strong demand from electrification and clean energy investments.
Supply Deficits: The bank has revised its deficit forecasts, expecting a 230,000-ton shortfall in 2025 and a 407,000-ton deficit in 2026, due to ongoing supply risks and disruptions in major producing countries like Chile and Peru.
Impact of U.S. Dollar and Interest Rates: A weaker U.S. dollar, influenced by potential Fed rate cuts, is expected to boost copper demand globally, easing financial pressures on manufacturers and construction firms, which will further support copper prices.
Growing Demand for Copper: UBS projects a 2.8% increase in global copper demand in both 2025 and 2026, fueled by investments in electric vehicles, renewable energy, and power grids, highlighting the metal's importance in achieving net-zero emissions.
