Bet on These Copper ETFs as Red Metal Demand Expected to Surge 50%

COPX and peers offer a diversified way to tap into copper's 'super theme' as S&P Global sees demand surging 50% by 2040 amid EV and AI growth.

Copper ETF (CPER) Hits New 52-Week High

CPER just hit a 52-week high, up 57.66% from its low, as copper prices increase on speculative buying, a weaker dollar and hopes for Fed rate cuts.

In a post on X, veteran commodities analyst Ole Hansen of Saxo Bank highlighted multiple near-term supply and demand signals that don’t fully justify the rally.<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/Ole_S_Hansen/status/2016890910802346456"><img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Ole_Hansen_jpg_1bb7e1dd0f.webp" alt="Ole Hansen.jpg"></a>The gap between futures and spot prices is the widest it has been in nearly a year, exchange stockpiles are at multi-year highs, and Chinese import premiums have dropped to their lowest level in over a year, all pointing to softer physical demand than current prices suggest,&nbsp;the analyst said.Despite supportive macroeconomic tailwinds such as rate cuts and strong interest in hard assets, the underlying fundamentals appear relatively weak, he&nbsp;noted.According to multiple reports earlier this week, Deutsche Bank expects copper prices to peak around $13,000 per ton in the second quarter before easing in the second half of the year as output begins to recover at several major mines.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Stock Watch</h2>Shares of miners, including Southern Copper Corp.

A gold rally and a copper push have boosted Barrick’s shares in the last 12 months, as they entered 2026 with full steam.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Without significant investment, the copper market could face a supply shortfall of around 10 million metric tons by 2040.</li><li>AI is expected to drive copper demand by 2 million metric tons between 2025 and 2040.</li><li>Market participants are bullish on copper for 2026, driven by strong Chinese demand, AI data center growth, a weaker dollar, and potential Fed rate cuts, according to Argus Media.</li></ul>Artificial intelligence (AI) is fast becoming one of copper’s most powerful new demand drivers. As AI data centers grow alongside electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy, global copper demand could rise 50% by 2040, raising fresh concerns over supply constraints.A new S&amp;P Global report projects a potential shortfall of nearly 10 million metric tons by 2040 unless investment accelerates. They see annual copper demand rising from 28 million metric tons in 2025 to 42 million metric tons by 2040, a 50% increase driven by electrification.The surge in demand is being driven by four key areas: the rapid expansion of AI and data centers, core economic activity, energy transition, including EVs and renewables, and defense modernization.<h2 class="st-heading-2">AI To Drive Demand</h2>AI, in particular, has emerged as a strong new driver for copper demand. Data centers that support AI workloads are extremely energy-intensive and require extensive copper cabling for power delivery, cooling, and network connections. AI is set to increase copper demand by 2 million metric tons between 2025 and 2040 for both IT infrastructure and the electricity needed to run it, the report added.Global data-center dealmaking surged to a record high through November last year, driven by rising demand for computing infrastructure. More than 100 data-center transactions were completed during the period, with total deal value around $61 billion, according to a Reuters report last month.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Supply Chain Bottlenecks</h2>Copper mining faces declining ore grades, rising extraction costs, long development timelines for new projects, which often exceed 15 years, and environmental and regulatory hurdles. Without substantial investment to expand mining and processing capacity, S&amp;P Global projects a possible shortfall of nearly a quarter of projected demand.While recycling could help relieve some of the supply pressures, coordinated efforts from industry, governments, and investors will be required to speed up new mine development, streamline permitting, and build the infrastructure needed to sustain large-scale copper production, the report added.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Outlook</h2>Market participants are bullish on copper for 2026, citing strong Chinese demand, AI-driven data center growth, a softer US dollar, and potential Fed rate cuts, according to an Argus Media report earlier this week. While some expect a near-term supply deficit due to limited new mines and declining South American output, record-high US inventories may help temporarily bridge the gap.Last month, Goldman Sachs forecast copper prices averaging $5.17 per pound in 2026, with only a modest surplus and no major shortage expected until 2029.Meanwhile, copper prices on the LME fell 0.2% to $12,844 per ton on Thursday, having climbed to a record high of $13,387.5 on Tuesday.<h2 class="st-heading-2">ETF Watch</h2>The United States Copper Index Fund (CPER) was down 0.3% in premarket on Thursday, with retail sentiment on Stocktwits remaining in the ‘bullish’ zone over the past 24 hours, amid ‘high’ message volumes.Over the past year, <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/CPER">CPER</a> has gained over 36%.Read also: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/why-vnda-stock-falling-premarket/cmUbEA9R4Pn">Vanda Stock Drop 10% Premarket After FDA Rejects Jet Lag Drug Application</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Meanwhile, spot copper (XCU/USD) fell 3.1% to $5.60 per pound. The XCU/USD pair has gained more than 7% so far in December, and around 40% this year.However, analysts have cautioned that copper prices may be overextended, particularly as demand slows in China, the world’s largest consumer.“Some fabrication plants in China, which buy copper and are sensitive to prices, have cut production or even halted after the recent rally,” Wu Kunjin, head of base metals research at Minmetals Futures Co., told Bloomberg on Monday.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Goldman Sachs Remains Bullish</h2>Goldman Sachs expects copper prices to consolidate in 2026 after a strong rally driven by tariff-related speculation. Prices climbed from around $10,600 a ton in November to $11,700 as traders anticipated higher shipments to the U.S. ahead of a potential tariff on refined copper, tightening supplies outside the country, Goldman said in its 2026 commodities outlook report published last week.The firm noted that ex-U.S. inventories have become a better driver of LME prices in 2025 than global stockpiles, which have risen this year. The bank forecasts copper will average about $11,400 a ton in 2026, assuming tariff uncertainty persists until a mid-2026 announcement, with implementation pushed to 2027.Goldman noted that while ex-U.S. inventories are expected to fall further, much of that decline is already priced into forward markets. Prices may ease in the second half of 2026 as the U.S. begins drawing down copper stockpiled over 2025-26, it said.Despite near-term consolidation, Goldman continues to favor copper long term, citing strong demand from electrification, AI, power grids, and defense, alongside constrained mine supply.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Did Stocktwits Users React?</h2>Retail sentiment for the <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/CPER">United States Copper Index Fund</a> (CPER) on Stocktwits remained ‘extremely bullish’ over the past 24 hours, amid ‘high’ message volumes.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/CPER_png_f9da79cec1.webp" alt="CPER.png">Despite <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SCCO">Southern Copper Corp.'s</a> (SCCO) premarket decline, retail sentiment turned ‘extremely bullish’ from ‘bullish’ a day ago. Year-to-date, SCCO shares have gained nearly 70%, while the XCU/USD pair has climbed 22%.Unplanned mine outages, trade policy uncertainties under President Donald Trump, and heavy pressure on global smelters have driven copper’s rally this year.Read Also: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/silver-pullback-from-80-drives-hl-ag-paas-stock-lower/cL75u1sRExP">Silver’s $80 Breach Sparks Strong Pullback, Miners Feel The Heat: HL, AG, PAAS Stocks Drop Premarket</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
