Copper outlook: To dance or Not to
Updated March 2023
In the August 27 market update on the copper outlook: we stated that Copper (another leading economic indicator) is not faring so well.
That outlook is accurate, but from a longer-term perspective, one could argue that it trades in the oversold ranges and will soon move to the extremely oversold ranges.
Copper market base formations and the stock market have an uncanny relationship. In every instance, the markets rallied shortly after Copper put in a bottom.
While the markets will gyrate in the short term, the long-term outlook suggests that the Fed will cave in shortly before or after Copper puts in a bottom. The long-term copper outlook (18-24 months) is bullish, and astute investors would do well to accumulate the strongest stocks in the sector. Two plays that come to mind are SCCO and FCX

Copper Outlook: March 2023 Update
2022 saw copper hitting new highs, indicating that the global economy was not in dire straits. Instead, the root cause of our troubles lay in the ill-conceived political decisions made by confident world leaders. At the forefront of this pack of “stupid leaders” was the United States. Despite a brief slump, copper held steady and impressively surged beyond the 4.50 mark, revealing that issues with inflation and supply were merely symptoms of bad policies – and President Biden’s policies were chief among them.
As a result, the good doctor Copper is currently gaining momentum and is set to trade past 4.50. Unfortunately, this means that the market will be range-bound for years, a scenario that will be a bane for long-term investors who focus on indices.
However, it presents an excellent opportunity for traders who can effectively use market psychology and technical analysis to make a killing. Leading economic indicators play an essential role in trading, providing valuable insights into the future state of the economy and helping traders make well-informed decisions.
Copper is a market that is forward-looking and can be volatile. Despite a wide range of trading activity since 2006, with a sharp downturn in 2008-2009. However, copper will experience a significant upward move, eventually driving its price to the 9 to 11 range. Furthermore, it is highly possible that one index could break new highs, but a range-bound market may be the most likely path for the next 18 to 36 months.
Turmoil in the Copper Market?
The demand for copper is increasing due to its widespread use across various industries, and the global supply is facing shortages. As a result, the stock prices of companies producing copper are expected to rise, presenting a compelling investment opportunity for investors. Companies such as FCX and SCCO are worth considering due to their ability to maintain high production levels and navigate the volatile copper market.
The demand for copper is expected to increase even further as governments worldwide push for sustainable energy alternatives, including wind turbines and solar panels, which require copper in their construction. Investing in copper stocks provides a promising opportunity for investors to capitalize on the projected growth of this essential commodity.
In light of the current global copper shortage, investors should remain focused on copper stocks, as these stocks are poised to rise in value as the demand for copper continues to escalate. With the increasing demand for copper and the current supply shortages, investing in copper stocks such as FCX and SCCO can provide an excellent return on investment for savvy investors.
