🌍The world's top copper mines are absolute monsters

and South America owns the list!

Escondida (Chile) – 1,350kt (BHP/Rio Tinto)
Collahuasi (Chile) – 640kt
Buenavista (Mexico) – 535kt
Morenci (USA) – 520kt
Cerro Verde (Peru) – 500kt

Chile + Peru = 70% of the top 20.

These giants fuel EVs, grids & renewables... but replacement pipelines are thin.

Copper supply concentration risk is real.

📕 Minutes from the last meeting #FED:

▫️ Nine chairmen voted for a 25 basis point rate cut, with three against (two for a pause, one for a -50 basis point cut)

❗️ The balance sheet reduction (#QT) has been completed. The Fed is starting reverse repo (purchasing US government bonds) to maintain sufficient reserves in the system.

▫️ The expected volume of bond purchases is around $220 billion over the first 12 months. Purchases will mainly be in short-term Treasury securities (bills).

▫️ The $500 billion limit on permanent repo operations has been removed.

▫️ Inflation has risen since the beginning of the year and remains elevated. The main reason for the increase is tariffs.

▫️ The labor market continues to cool: unemployment has reached 4.4%, and hiring rates have slowed down.

▫️ Most Fed chairmen supported the rate cut due to increasing risks in the labor market, although some expressed concern about the lack of progress on inflation.

❗️ Further rate cuts are likely if inflation declines as expected. However, some chairmen suggested taking a PAUSE after this cut.

▫️ Market expectations: another two rate cuts in 2026 (according to surveys).

▫️ The economy is growing at a moderate pace. GDP is slowing compared to 2024, but remains positive.

▫️ Some participants noted that technological progress and productivity growth (possibly related to AI) could support economic growth without inflationary pressure.

▫️ The Fed's decisions will depend on incoming macroeconomic data, the evolution of economic prospects, and the balance of risks.

2026 could be an incredible year for IPOs
