H1 2026 Saw Intertwined Contradictions in China's Copper Market - What's Next for H2?

Join us for an in-depth webinar on the key themes shaping China's copper market and what to expect in the second half of the year. In H1 2026, the copper market saw record-low TC/RCs and tightening scrap supply, yet China's refined copper output continued to defy expectations. Emerging sectors like new energy vehicles and overseas grid upgrades provided robust long-term demand, though traditional sectors were dampened by high prices.

The webinar will focus on the current supply-demand dynamics, U.S. tariff expectations, and how they are splitting global refined copper stock trends. Our analysis will also explore the implications of the U.S. tariff deadline on global copper flows and pricing. This webinar will equip you with actionable intelligence to navigate the complexities of the copper market in the second half of 2026.
