Series: Markets
Diesel and freight are squeezing operating margins, lithium shows why demand growth does not guarantee pricing power, and a newly approved US copper mine shows how slowly genuine supply can respond.
This week’s connected question is why mining companies are still investing while fuel, freight and finance are expensive.
Energy and transport: diesel remains physically tight even as total oil demand falls, pushing costs through mines, shipping and the wider economy.
Lithium: weak prices coexist with a major Australian expansion because producers are competing on future scale and cost, not assuming today’s price will last.
Copper: Copper World has reached final investment decision, but its 2029 start date shows why new mine supply cannot answer demand quickly.
What to watch: diesel exports and inventories, lithium supply discipline and project funding, and whether newly approved copper projects stay on time and budget.
