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. Macro-economic concerns are overwhelming the influence of zinc’s fundamentals and the base case zinc price is forecast to remain low in the near-term. Our scenario analyses conform to the causality of supply, demand, stocks and price. They also consider a judgement of investor sentiment and behaviour that over the last four decades has so often caused zinc to test the highs and lows of the stock cycle and resulted in a history of volatile prices and treatment charges.
