Copper in USD per ton to reach $15,000/t by 2025

The copper price in USD per ton since 2015 is rising within an upward (green) trend-channel with consolidations (red) followed by strong acceleration phases (yellow) suggesting that the correction since 2021 is coming to an end and that a new strong price increase is poised to start once the red resistance is broken and transformed into new support. Analysts in early 2024 are forecasting a strong price increase of +75% to reach $15,000 USD/t to spur new mine developments (Goldman Sachs predicted this price level already in 2021 to be reached by 2025, whereas mining magnate Robert Friedland also said in late 2023 that this threshold is needed as an incentive for new copper mine developement projects to be realized).
