2009 December issue

First phase of recovery over

After the slump in prices and demand during the first six months of the global financial crisis, the tin market has bounced back strongly during the course of 2009. However stock levels remain high and this could remain the case through 2010 unless the recovery in the world economy accelerates and becomes self-sustaining.
Tin consumption in Asia has been healthy in recent months, helped by stronger domestic sales of consumer electronics in China. European and American demand has been more muted, but physical market premiums remain firm.
Indonesian production is expected to decline further in 2010, and our special feature starting on page 7 points out that there are few new mines coming on-stream anywhere in the world in the next three to four years.
