In 2023, industrial metals experienced a dismal bear market, with a manufacturing recession triggered by high interest rates spreading around the world and major metal prices falling, with the S&P GSCI Industrial Metals Index down 6% for the year. Since 2024, copper prices have begun a wave of spectacular market, and the current LME copper price once rose to $9,800 / ton, hitting a new high since June 2022; The corresponding Shanghai copper once exceeded the 80,000 yuan/ton mark. Many people believe that copper prices are the "current indicator" of economic prosperity, and that copper prices rise and fall in sync with the macro economy, but this year such a positive correlation seems to have broken down.
