The case

Copper warehouse inventories are the clearest signal of physical tightness versus paper sentiment. LME stocks have been drawing as smelter disruptions, grade declines, and policy-driven demand (EVs, grid, data centers) outpace new mine supply. Headline macro pessimism masks the structural deficit forming in physical copper. Track LME on-warrant stock levels weekly.
