Tin is a metal used to coat other metals. It is an alloying metal, used for soldering and for the production of superconducting rare earth magnets. Thus, the electronics sector has great demand for tin. The fundamentals are good. There are or have been concerns about supply shortages. The largest tin producers include China, Indonesia, Burma and Myanmar. The latter has now banned mining activities. Indonesia, another major producing country, could also see a supply ban. But because the fundamentals are so good, investor interest in investing in tin is growing.

After tin has been in deficit mode for about ten years, and there are many important applications for the metal, a tight supply of tin is also expected for the coming years. Tin scores with various advantages, it is malleable, does not oxidize easily in air, is durable and light. The metal belongs to the conflict minerals, it is produced for example in the Congo. Investors should keep an eye on exchange-traded products in tin. Besides futures, there are the big producers in the industry. But smaller tin companies could bring a lot of joy. That’s because companies in the exploration and development phase can be particularly lucrative.
