The metals market’s been a rollercoaster lately, with prices swinging wildly thanks to AI-driven demand and supply chain snags pushing prices up — only to be pulled back by fears of rising rates and a slowing global economy. Analysts at Standard Chartered say the next move hinges on investor risk appetite, Fed policy, the dollar, and China’s economic health. Copper’s holding strong despite China’s slowdown — inventories are falling, imports rising, and buyers are paying premiums, while IEA warnings about supply disruptions add to its appeal. Aluminum took a hit after geopolitical news, but some think the sell-off was overdone — production won’t bounce back overnight, and China’s output is keeping prices from crashing. Platinum’s gaining traction, but palladium’s under pressure from weaker growth and investor caution, while rhodium remains tight on supply — with the market looking balanced heading into 2027.
