Report summary
The zinc price has fallen sharply as measures to control the spread of the coronavirus trigger a rapid decline in zinc consumption and increased likelihood of a global recession. This has necessitated a dramatic change to our base case assumptions for zinc demand. The Global Zinc Metal Market Long-term Outlook provides the latest update of detailed supply and demand analysis and price forecasts for the zinc market out to 2040, including; • Revisions to our global zinc consumption forecasts • Impact of coronavirus on demand and the likely trajectory of the recovery • New price forecasts and price scenarios • The coronavirus/low price/high TC supply correction • Mine supply developments over the forecast period • The first "In focus" looks at how the impact of this global pandemic will accelerate the migration of manufacturing away from China
