Global Zinc Market Surges to 4-Year High LME ZINC PRICE ANALYSIS : SO OK TRADING : 4 SEP 2026 Global zinc prices have reached their highest level in four years, reflecting tight supply conditions and strong demand from clean energy and electric vehicle (EV) industries. According to the latest data from the London Metal Exchange (LME), the 3‑month forward zinc price closed at USD 3,912/MT (+1.22%), while the global average trading price stood at USD 3,900/MT — the highest since 2022. On the supply side, mine disruptions in Sweden, the US, and Peru, combined with negative treatment charges (TCs) in China, have pushed global inventories to their lowest level in three years. On the demand side, galvanizing and EV components continue to drive consumption, accounting for more than 50% of global zinc usage. SO OK TRADING analysis indicates that zinc prices will remain elevated throughout the remainder of 2026, with fluctuations expected in the USD 3,800–4,100/MT range. The average price in Q4 is projected at USD 3,400–3,700/MT, before a slight correction in 2027. ✨ Summary The global zinc market is entering one of its strongest upcycles in recent years.
