Copper Hits Record in China and Jumps in New York as Tariff Uncertainty Fuels a 2026 Supply Squeeze — and a “Phantom Deficit” Debate

Copper Hits Record in China and Jumps in New York as Tariff Uncertainty Fuels a 2026 Supply Squeeze — and a “Phantom Deficit” Debate

December 26, 2025 — Copper closed out the post‑holiday week with a fresh surge that underscores just how unusual—and how politically sensitive—the global metals market has become. Prices pushed to all‑time highs in Shanghai and jumped again in New York, as traders weighed tightening feedstock signals for 2026 against a tariff-shaped supply chain that is increasingly split into “U.S. copper” and “everyone else’s copper.” The Business Times Behind the rally is a collision of forces: persistent concentrate tightness, mine disruptions that have kept investors on edge, and the lingering question of how far the United States will go in expanding tariffs deeper into the copper value chain. The result is a market where price screams shortage—yet inventories exist, just not always where industrial buyers can use them quickly or cheaply.

UK Stock Market Today: FTSE 100 Braces for a Softer Open as UK GDP Holds at 0.1% and Commodities Hit Fresh Records (22 December 2025)

UK Stock Market Today: FTSE 100 Braces for a Softer Open as UK GDP Holds at 0.1% and Commodities Hit Fresh Records (22 December 2025)

London’s equity market heads into the Christmas week with a very different feel from the one investors have grown used to in recent years: the FTSE 100 is sitting close to record territory after a powerful 2025, but the domestic economic backdrop is deteriorating, and liquidity is thinning fast as the holiday break approaches. Reuters+1 Early indications on Monday, 22 December 2025, point to a cautious start for UK stocks. FTSE 100 futures were signalling a modest dip, as traders balance a late-year “Santa” mood in global risk assets against downbeat UK surveys and fresh economic data that underlines how sluggish growth remains.

BHP Group Ltd Stock in Focus on Dec. 22, 2025: China Iron Ore Talks, Copper-Potash Pivot, and Fresh Analyst Targets

BHP Group Ltd stock is heading into the final stretch of 2025 with a familiar mix of forces tugging at it: iron ore prices and China demand on one side, and a long-term strategy pivot toward copper and potash on the other. On Monday, December 22, 2025, investors also have a new headline to digest around BHP’s iron ore relationship with China’s centralised buyer, plus updated “street view” forecasts that frame where analysts think the stock can go next. This is the key point: BHP is still leveraged to iron ore and China, but it is increasingly being valued as a “transition metals + income” play—especially if copper’s structural story keeps firming and Jansen potash stays on track.
