Copper is on track for its strongest year since 2009, riding on widespread bets that electrification demand will crush available supply. The rally reflects investors' conviction that the global push toward clean energy infrastructure—from EV adoption to renewable grids—will require way more copper than producers can currently deliver. It's basically a play on energy transition economics and industrial-scale buildout timelines. Worth watching how this commodity supercycle unfolds, especially if supply constraints persist.

Red copper this time is truly different; the demand gap caused by the energy transition is right there. If production capacity can't keep up, this cycle could be quite intense.

The recent trend in copper prices, to put it simply, is a bet on shortages in new energy. Supply chain bottlenecks are a long-term issue, and this time there might really be some potential... But how long it can last is hard to say. Anyway, I didn't buy the dip when I should have, and when it was time to act, I held back. Typical all-in player’s common flaw, haha.

The recent surge in copper prices is really fierce, with energy transition demand crushing supply. No wonder so many people are optimistic.

This round of copper market really can't hold up anymore. With so many demands for new energy transformation, mining companies' production capacity can't keep up at all.

The recent surge in copper prices is crazy, but I'm more concerned about whether the supply chain will really hit a bottleneck. It feels more like hype than actual issues.
