Since late February, there has been a strong wave of hoarding in the US. COMEX copper prices have set many increasing streaks and record highs. Most recently, on July 9, Mr. Trump unexpectedly announced that he would impose a 50% tax on all imported copper from August 1, making copper prices even more expensive. The US imports nearly half of the copper it consumes.
In Vietnam, according to data from the International Trade Center (ITC), in 2024, copper exports to the US included about 14.7 tons of scrap and 42.8 tons of refined copper, showing that the level of dependence on the US market is insignificant.
Therefore, the high tax rate that the US has just announced will most likely not significantly affect Vietnam's copper export activities in the near future.
