Why copper's supply crunch is only getting started — and what it means for prices in 2025

Global copper mine output fell for the third consecutive quarter. The Cobre Panama closure removed 350,000 tonnes of annual supply overnight. Meanwhile, the energy transition is pulling demand forward faster than any model predicted. This issue traces exactly where the squeeze is tightest — and which signals to watch.

In this issue:

→ The three mine shutdowns reshaping the LME supply curve

→ COMEX net-long positioning hits a 14-month high — what the specs are seeing

→ China's grid capex: the one number that matters most right now
