Can the US Retain its Hold on its Current Stockpile of Copper?

In February last year, President Trump ordered a national security investigation into imports of copper into the U.S. The probe would allow the administration to decide whether to levy import tariffs on the refined metal or not. Since then, traders have been shipping copper into America in anticipation that once tariffs are imposed, they would make a killing selling the metal they had preemptively stockpiled in the country. That frontloading has led to copper stockpiles in the country rising to more than 1.10 million tons. Traders are still shipping even more metal into the U.S. as Trump keeps markets guessing…

Peter Schiff Says Rising Yields Bode Well for Gold

Peter Schiff, who deals in precious metals and rose to fame by warning about the financial crisis of 2008 long before it happened, has again made news by saying that the current rise in bond yields is very good for the price of gold. During an interview with Kitco News, the owner of an equities fund focusing on gold said that traders and investors have it wrong when they assume that rising yields are bearish for gold. The reverse is actually true, Schiff says. He explains that when yields rise as quickly as they are now doing, the message is…

Numa Numa Resources Inc. Advances a Multiproject Bougainville Portfolio as Metals Prices Surge

Gold, copper supply gap is why a dormant deposit with known reserves, rather than one still being explored, has become a more valuable asset than it was a decade ago. Numa Numa Resources is an infrastructure developer and investor focused on the resources of the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, a Papua New Guinea province in the South Pacific. What remains underground at the company’s Panguna Mine is what makes the project significant. Gold has spent 2026 setting records, and copper is running short of the supply the world needs to keep up with demand, a combination that has investors hunting…

Deutsche Bank Forecasts Silver Oversupply in 2027

A new report authored by Deutsche Bank indicates that a decline in the industrial demand for silver, as well as growing supply, could cause the precious metal’s market to shift from being in a deficit to one characterized by oversupply as soon as 2027. Daniel Ghali, a metals analyst at the bank, writes in the report that silver’s spot price could average $70 an ounce by Q2 of 2027. He adds that as the supply squeeze eases, silver could find it hard to see its price rise at the same pace as that of gold, potentially leading to a higher…

Copper Prices Retreat as the Dollar Surges and Energy Costs Rise

The price of copper declined as the week drew to a close amid rising crude oil prices and a strengthening dollar. These two headwinds exerted downward pressure on most industrial metals. On Thursday alone, LME copper lost 1% to sell at about $14,270 per ton. Comex futures shed 0.6% to reach $6.57 per pound. These declines come at a time when crude oil prices have climbed yet again and the greenback has rallied. Such an environment weighs on metals because manufacturing costs go up and trigger a drop in industrial production. A large number of base metals have seen their…

Greenland Mines Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRML) Management Outlines Pipeline, Path from Exploration to Production

Company president notes access to NA capital and finance experts, key management team and deep operational, logistical and technical expertise. The company's first project is Skaergaard, a deposit dominated by palladium and gold. Greenland Mines’ second project, Sarfartoq, targets neodymium and praseodymium, two rare earth elements used in powerful magnets. China mines more than two-thirds of the world's rare earth elements and processes up to 90% of them. That concentration concerns Western governments and manufacturers alike. Export controls from Beijing have already pushed up prices and disrupted supply chains for the magnets used in cars, wind turbines and defense systems.…
