US copper stockpiles are exploding: Copper inventories at Comex surged to a record 589,081 short tons last week. Since June 2024, copper stockpiles have risen +6,400% and now exceed the previous record of 399,341 short tons set in 2002 by 48%. Including off-exchange inventories, total US copper stockpiles are now estimated at ~1.1 million short tons. This nearly equals the annual production of the world's largest copper mine, Escondida in Chile. This all comes as US copper imports nearly DOUBLED in 2025 to a record 1.9 million short tons. Fears that President Trump would impose tariffs on refined copper, the most commonly traded form of the industrial metal, are driving the historic rush. The US is hoarding copper at an unprecedented pace.

Silver inventories on the Shanghai Futures Exchange are collapsing: Shanghai's Silver available for delivery is down to just 350 tonnes, the lowest since 2015. This marks a -88% decline from the ~3,000 tonne peak seen in January 2021. This tightness has been exacerbated by heavy silver exports from China to London in 2025, which alleviated the global physical squeeze but depleted local stocks even further. The physical silver market has rarely been this tight.
