Copper Demand Is Growing: World Copper Positions To Capitalize

Thanks to green energy and electric vehicles copper is having a resurgence. So much that by 2035 there will be an annual deficit of as much as 22 billion pounds of copper, by some estimates.

That plays into World Copper Ltd.'s (OTCQB: WCUFF) strengths. The Vancouver-based miner operates the Zonia mine in copper-rich Arizona. The mine not only has the potential to produce hundreds of tons of copper but the company recently found what could amount to over 14 million tons of historically mined material available for re-processing.

"The prospect of re-processing historically mined mineralized material would add more value and provide additional upside to the Zonia Project, and it is a unique potential value opportunity,” said Gord Neal, CEO of World Copper. “In mining projects, any opportunity to start production early and to generate revenue right from the start of the operations can greatly improve the economics of the project, increasing the net present value (NPV) and reducing the financing needs.” To learn more about the company and its mining process click here.

Quantitative Easing Could Occur Soon – Here's What That Could Mean For Crypto, And How To Benefit

The Bank of Canada (BoC) and European Central Bank (ECB) recently cut interest rates, raising expectations of similar actions by the Federal Reserve (Fed). The Fed adjusts interest rates to manage inflation and employment, raising rates to curb inflation and cutting them to boost the economy. From March 2022 to July 2023, the Fed raised rates 11 times due to high inflation.

With inflation now down, the possibility of quantitative easing, which involves reducing rates and increasing the money supply, is growing. Lower interest rates can positively impact cryptocurrencies by stimulating the economy, encouraging investment, and increasing demand for riskier assets like crypto.

Historically, Bitcoin prices surged during periods of low rates but dropped significantly when rates were raised.

Former President Trump suggested that Taiwan should pay the U.S. for its protection against China, raising questions about the future of the island’s independence, and sending shares of Taiwanese chip giant TSMC (TSM) down 8%, and other AI and chip companies down with it.
