The U.S. will soon be flooded with massive amounts of copper shipments in a global rush to front-run President Trump’s probable tariffs, with 100K-150K metric tons of refined copper expected to arrive in U.S. ports in the coming weeks, which potentially would surpass the all-time record of 136,951 tons set in January 2022, Bloomberg reported Wednesday.
Goldman Sachs analysts said they expect all forms of copper shipped to the U.S. to be hit with tariffs by year-end, keeping Comex prices at a hefty premium over other benchmarks, and noted that tariffs could cause China to refine 10K-20K tons/month less copper within the first three months – in a global market that Goldman already expected to face a 180K-ton deficit this year.

The precious metal remains supported as concerns about an intensifying global trade war continue to place downward pressure on the dollar and Treasurys amid diminishing faith in the U.S. as a reliable trading partner.
Gold’s price, which soared 6% last week and trades 23% higher since the start of the year, seesawed Sunday evening as investors digested news that recently announced U.S. tariff exemptions on smartphones, computers, and semiconductors could be temporary, with the president later pledging a national security trade investigation into the chip sector.

The silver market continues to see a lot of noisy trading, after initially gapping higher, and then dropping. Since then, we have seen a massive number of buyers. Silver is a market that continues to see a lot of volatility.
Ultimately, this is a market where if we can break above the $35 level cleanly, then I think we will go back to the highs and then eventually go much higher than that.

While the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential silver medal to be issued sometime this summer by the United States Mint will bear the same obverse and reverse designs as used for a silver medal included in the 2013 Theodore Roosevelt Coin & Chronicles Set, the new issue will have distinct differences.
The obverse design is the same executed by Chief Engraver Charles E. Barber for the Mint’s 1905 Presidential medal from his second term, with the reverse design by Assistant Mint Engraver George T. Morgan.

Gold prices surged to a one-month peak on Thursday, nearing $2,700 per ounce, as softer U.S. inflation data fueled hopes of lower interest rates in 2025. Spot gold rose to $2,697.45 an ounce, while February gold futures climbed 0.4% to $2,728. Lower rates enhance gold’s appeal by reducing the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets.
Other precious metals saw mixed movement: platinum futures dipped 0.1% to $948.15 an ounce, while silver edged up 0.3% to $31.622.
Copper prices steadied after recent gains, with London futures rising 0.3% to $9,192.50 per ton.
