Investors lost faith in tin's bull narrative towards the end of 2024, slashing bets on a further rally and helping crash the price.

The article from Mining.com discusses the recent fluctuations in the tin market, highlighting that despite a significant drop in tin prices from their peak, the underlying supply issues persist. Tin prices had surged due to a combination of factors including supply disruptions from major producers like Myanmar, where illegal mining operations were halted, and Indonesia, where new mining quotas were implemented. Although prices have corrected downwards, the article points out that the supply side remains fragile. It mentions that while some illegal mining has resumed in Myanmar, the overall supply chain is still vulnerable to regulatory changes and environmental crackdowns. Additionally, the demand for tin, particularly in electronics and renewable energy sectors, continues to grow, suggesting that any further supply disruptions could quickly push prices up again. The piece concludes by noting that while tin has "fallen back to earth," the market's fundamentals suggest that the supply problems haven't disappeared, and investors and industry watchers should remain cautious.
