Copper presents a generational investment opportunity for investors, as a looming supply crunch fueled by high demand from the energy transition is elevating prices to record highs. The copper market is expected to enter into deficit in the near term, with the shortfall projected to increase to between 5 and 8 million tonnes per year by the end of the decade as new demand accelerates. Energy transition applications, the power infrastructure required for electrification, data centers, and emerging markets such as India are all competing for dwindling copper supplies.
