Copper, Silver Price 2026
Copper, Silver and Aluminium Prices Likely to Rise in 2026: Investment Opportunity
In 2026, prices of copper, silver and aluminium are expected to increase significantly. Experts believe that the growing importance of these metals in global industries and limited supply will push prices higher. This situation can create a good investment opportunity for investors.
Why Metal Prices Are Expected to Increase?
The demand for metals is rising due to:
Expansion of electric vehicles (EVs)
Growth in renewable energy
Rapid development of data centers
Increase in electronic and electrical products
At the same time, global supply remains tight, which is increasing the strategic importance of these metals.
Copper Price Near 5-Month High
Copper prices are currently trading close to their highest level in the last five months. In the international market, copper prices have reached around $59 per pound, which is nearly ₹5,288 per kg in Indian currency.
Experts say that copper stock levels are very low and are equal to only one week of global consumption. Due to this shortage, copper prices may rise further in 2026.
Silver and Aluminium Demand Rising Fast
Silver
Silver prices are increasing faster than gold. The main reason is the strong demand from:
Solar panels
Electric vehicles
Electronics industry
Because of this, silver is becoming more valuable as an industrial metal, not just a precious metal.
Aluminium
Aluminium demand is also rising rapidly due to:
Infrastructure development
Electric vehicles
Packaging and construction industries
Experts believe aluminium prices can touch around $2,970 per tonne (approximately ₹2.46 lakh per tonne) in the coming time.
Positive Outlook for Metal Companies
Many Indian metal companies are expected to benefit from rising metal prices. Some major companies with a positive outlook include:
Company Name Current Price (₹) Target Price (₹)
Hindalco 585 685
Nalco 290.50 340
Vedanta 402 520
Hindustan Zinc 604.85 730
Hindustan Copper 863.60 1,040

Investment Opportunity in 2026
According to experts, 2026 will not only benefit countries with large metal reserves but also those who have sufficient metal stock to support fast-growing industries like EVs and renewable energy.
Due to increasing demand and limited supply, copper, silver and aluminium may continue to perform well, making them attractive options for long-term investors.
Final Conclusion
Copper prices may rise due to low stock and high demand
Silver demand is growing faster than gold
Aluminium prices are supported by infrastructure and EV growth
Metal stocks can be a good investment opportunity in 2026
