Wochenausblick Rohstoffe: Ein Blick auf die harten Zahlen (SG)
|
|
|
Das neue Jahr begann, wie das alte verlaufen ist (Chart 1): mit deutlichen Preisanstiegen bei den Metallen und (kleineren) Verlusten bei den Energiepreisen. Am Ölmarkt führte die Absetzung des venezolanischen Machthabers Maduro durch die USA zu einem zeitweisen leichten Preisrückgang. Schließlich weckte das bei so manchem die Hoffnung, dass mehr Öl aus Venezuela auf den Markt kommt. Wir erachten das kurzfristige Potenzial allerdings als begrenzt. Zuletzt machte der Ölpreis seine Verluste entsprechend wieder wett, wohl aber auch aufgrund der sich zuspitzenden Lage im Iran.. --- Die Industriemetallpreise verbuchen bereits deutliche Gewinne im neuen Jahr, wobei Nickel und Kupfer herausstechen.. --- Auch die Edelmetalle starten das neue Jahr mit Gewinnen, bleiben aufgrund des starken Rücksetzers zum Jahresende aber noch hinter ihren Hochs von vor knapp zwei Wochen zurück.

Wave Of Costly Copper Thefts Threatens Public Safety, Experts Say
Authored by Allen Stein via The Epoch Times,
With copper prices at new highs, attacks on communications and power networks have sharply increased, and telecommunications companies, power suppliers, and construction firms are sounding the alarm.
Copper was trading at roughly $6 per pound or $12,000 a ton at midday on Jan. 7, a more than 30 percent year-over-year increase, according to industry analyst MarketWatch.
The increase in price contributed to the more than 15,540 copper theft incidents in 2025, according to a report by the U.S. Telecommunication Association. The volume of thefts during the first half of the year was double the previous period.
“Today, bad actors typically target communications lines in search of copper,” the report stated.
“They steal encased copper cables and cut them into short lengths before burning them to remove the sheathing to reveal the raw copper inside.”
