Will Copper Outperform Gold in 2026?

The Economic ECG

The Copper/Gold ratio is often used as a proxy for global bond yields.

  • Rising Ratio: Markets expect growth and higher yields.
  • Falling Ratio: Markets expect recession and safety.

In 2026, we expect this ratio to expand (Copper beats Gold) as the “Green Capex” cycle forces industrial metal consumption regardless of the broader monetary environment.
