Movement Alert|Southern Copper Rises 3.18% in Regular Trading, Global Copper Mine Supply Disruptions Continue to Support Price Recovery

Market Focus06-02

On June 2, Southern Copper rose 3.18% in regular trading, trading at $198.09/share, with trading volume of approximately $44.70 million, extending its recent rebound trajectory.

On the news front, global copper mine supply disruptions continue to intensify. Peru has issued an emergency decree due to an energy crisis, with major copper mines facing power rationing that reduces capacity by approximately 20,000 tons per month. Indonesia's Grasberg mine — the world's second-largest copper mine — has delayed full restart to early 2028, expected to reduce copper supply by over 100,000 tons. Institutions note that the tight supply-demand imbalance remains unchanged, with the global copper deficit estimated at 130,000 to 600,000 tons, and maintain a bullish outlook on copper prices.

The broader copper sector rallied in tandem, with Freeport-McMoRan up 3.62% and Taseko Mines up 1.39%. Southern Copper had previously surged to nearly $195 on record Q1 earnings before pulling back to around $167, and has now broken above its prior high, continuing its technical recovery.
