What’s changed since our last report?
Further weakness in key market sectors have forced us to cut forecast consumption compared with our Q1 data.
The recovery in concentrate output will increase supply in the medium term, pushing the refined market into significant surpluses as demand growth falters. This will negatively impact the refined lead price.
We have adjusted downwards our medium- and long-term price forecasts.
