Copper Prices Might Be Down, but a Longer-term Shortage Is Looming Copper’s recent decline looks to be a temporary setback, as the industrial metal readies for a potentially significant supply Copper deficits will emerge in 2020, according to Bloomberg According to a study by Bloomberg, a deficit in copper is likely to emerge around the year 2020. Despite the fact that the current project pipeline will add new supply in the short term, the long-term trends show a less rosy picture for the availability of copper. The world is on a path to vast shortages in copper, nickel, lithium and other important minerals that are necessary to build the batteries in electric vehicles.
