Tin Monitor
2010 February issue
Thirty years in tin
  • The first Tin Monitor was published in February 1980. In this issue we are commemorating the birthday by taking an extended look back over changes in the tin business over the last three decades and also consider what is in store in the next ten years. (see pages 7 – 11).

  • Prices have been very volatile at the start of 2010, driven by waves of investor buying and selling. Underneath this, demand is steadily improving and supply of higher quality tin is getting tighter. China may again be a key prop to the market, buoyed by booming domestic sales of electronic and electrical goods.

  • In this issue we also publish ITRI survey data on tin usage and refined tin production by company in 2009 (pages 4 and 5).

Tin Monitor

The Tin Monitor has been published since 1980 and is based on regular direct contacts with the leading players in the industry. It combines up-to-date statistical coverage, a comprehensive news round-up and a clear overview of the current state of the global market. As of the February 2007 issue, it has been produced as a joint venture between CRU and ITRI (formerly the International Tin Research Institute). This collaboration combines the strengths of ITRI and CRU to provide improved tin industry coverage and deliver an even more in-depth, dynamic publication.
