The Investment Potential of Copper
In this podcast, Edmund Shing and Xavier Timmermans discuss the recent copper high levels and their high value potentialCopper is crucial in various sectors, including electronics, housing, electrical transmission, defense, and the energy transition, making it a vital commodity in the modern economy.The global supply of copper is limited while demand is growing, leading to persistent supply/demand deficits. This imbalance is expected to continue in the coming years.Copper has surged 27% in 2024, reaching over $10,000 per tonne. Global copper miners have also seen a 32% increase, reflecting a strong market performance.Geopolitical and environmental issues, such as production difficulties in Chile, and the closure of mines in Panama, have constrained supply. Additionally, the banning of copper imports from Russia by the US and UK is fuelling supply concerns.Investing in copper can be done directly through metals ETFs and mining stocks. Mining companies are favoured due to their potential for high dividends, providing income while waiting for the market to improve.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

Point sur l'impact actuel des tensions entre Israël, Gaza et l'Iran sur les marchés financiers
Edmund Shing, Chief Investment Officer, et Guy Ertz, Deputy Chief Investment Officer, chez BNP Paribas Wealth Management, discutent de l'impact de l'escalade des tensions géopolitiques au Moyen-Orient.Les tensions entre Israël et Gaza sont évidentes depuis octobre 2023, donc ce n'est pas une situation nouvelle.Les efforts diplomatiques mondiaux se sont intensifiés pour éviter une escalade des tensions.Le prix du pétrole Brent avoisine les 90 dollars le baril, ce qui intègre déjà une prime de risque géopolitique substantielle, mais qui n'a pas augmenté récemment.Les prix de l'or continuent de grimper vers 2400 dollars l'once, mais cette hausse est principalement due aux achats des banques centrales et des consommateurs chinois, et non à une demande d'actifs refuges de la part des investisseurs.Les périodes précédentes de conflit régional ont eu un impact sur les marchés financiers mondiaux historiquement limité et de courte durée, ce qui est surprenant.L'impact le plus important sur les marchés jusqu'à présent provient plutôt des surprises en matière d'inflation et de croissance aux États-Unis, qui ont fait monter les rendements des bons du Trésor américain et le dollar américain, mettant ainsi la pression sur les marchés boursiers après une forte avancée de 6 mois.Hosted on Ausha.
