Copper Price Shock: Customs Tariff Risks and Chile's Supply Shortage

Copper prices have shown a significant increase in recent days. One of the most important factors behind this situation is tariff risks. The supply shortage in Chile is seen as a factor breaking this trend. According to my analysis, this situation will not cause a decline in copper prices in the short term. However, in the long term, Chile's supply shortage and tariff risks will have a significant impact.

The supply shortage in Chile significantly affects copper prices. The halt of mining activities in the country leads to an inability to meet global copper demand. Additionally, tariff risks restricting Chile's copper exports continue to break this trend. In my opinion, I do not expect this situation to cause a decline in copper prices in the long term. However, I believe this trend will continue in the short term.
