Tin Surges to Approach Record High
Tin futures in the UK surged to $55,700 per tonne, the highest since the record high of $58,900 touched February on persistent risks to supply and speculative bets on demand. Major producer Indonesia doubled down on threats against the illegal mining of tin and seixed 500 tonnes of metal connected to sources without licences. The move consolidated the pledge from Jakarta that it would crack down on mining activity that lack licensing after President Subianto ordered the closure of 1,000 illegal mines in Sumatra, tightening the outlook on supply from the key exporter. Elsewhere, operations in Myanmar's Man Maw mine remained slow since being closed for a resource audit in 2023. Meanwhile, tin's utility in datacenters drove Asian traders to pile on futures contracts for speculative positions on AI technology following the crowded developments in silver, although trading halts by the SHFE limited the rally.
