Attack On Qatar’s LNG Facility Raises Risk Of Wider Supply Disruptions In Asia KUALA LUMPUR, March 20 (Bernama) — Asia-Pacific economies now face rising risks of physical shortages, not only of energy, following the latest Iranian attack on Qatar’s Ras Laffan LNG facilities, including oil and gas but also of fertilisers and, by extension, potentially food later in the year. In a report, BMI said the impact stands to be far larger than the minor growth and inflation revisions that we recently made to account for higher oil prices. It is to be noted that Ras Laffan is the world’s largest liquified natural gas (LNG) export terminal, responsible for around 20 per cent […]

Asia copper stocks drop after Trump announces 50% import tariff Investing.com-- Major copper-producing stocks across Asia fell on Wednesday, following U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement of an impending 50% tariff on imported copper. President Trump said on Tuesday he will announce a 50% tariff on copper, hoping to boost U.S. production. This sent U.S. copper futures surging as much as 13% on Tuesday, hitting a record of $5.90 per pound. Traders rushed to build inventories ahead of impending import duties. U.S. copper futures extended gains in Asia hours on Wednesday. "Yet this will be bearish for LME prices, with the wave of copper rushing to the US likely to stop once the tariffs are implemented," analysts at ING said in a note. In contrast, benchmark Copper Futures on the London Metal Exchange fell 1.8% $9,634 a ton, as of 05:23 GMT, and those on the Shanghai Futures Exchange lost roughly 0.5%, reflecting limited time to reroute shipments to the U.S. Asian copper-linked equities broadly underperformed. India’s Hindalco Industries (NSE:HALC) shares fell over 1.5%%, while Hindustan Copper (NSE:HCPR) dropped nearly 3%. In Australia, copper-heavy name BHP Group (ASX:BHP) fell 0.7%, while Sandfire Resources (ASX:SFR) shares declined more than 3% amid concerns over export disruption. Australia’s mining subindex S&P/ASX 300 Metals & Mining declined 1.5%. Chinese miners Jiangxi Copper (HK:0358) and Zijin Mining Group (HK:2899) lost 2.8% and 3.5% respectively.

Factbox-What measures are Asian policymakers taking as market rout deepens? HONG KONG (Reuters) - Policymakers cross Asia are preparing measures to support financial markets as a rout deepened following sweeping tariffs announced by U.S. President Donald Trump that stoked widespread recession worries. Here are some of the announcements so far: CHINA China’s sovereign fund Central Huijin Investment said it was increasing holdings in China stocks, and would defend market stability, as the local market tumbled amid fears a widening trade war would unleash a deep recession. It is "firmly optimistic about the development prospects of China’s capital market and fully recognizes the current investment value of A-shares." INDONESIA Indonesia’s central bank said it would "intervene aggressively" in domestic foreign exchange markets when they re-open on Tuesday to stabilise "the rupiah exchange rate and maintaining" confidence in its markets. Bank Indonesia said the intervention would come in the spot and non-deliverable forward markets and in secondary bond markets, adding that it had already intervened offshore in Asia, European and New York markets. TAIWAN Taiwan’s top financial regulator said it would impose temporary curbs this week on short-selling of shares to help deal with potential market turmoil from the tariffs. The Taiwan Stock Exchange chairman said the bourse would coordinate with the financial regulator to take further stabilisation steps if needed to handle any volatility. SOUTH KOREA South Korea’s financial regulator asked firms and state institutions to be prepared to provide liquidity support for exporting companies and their contractors impacted by tariffs, and said it would prepare a market stabilising programme worth 100 trillion won ($68.08 billion). The Bank of Korea said it stood ready to deploy market stabilising measures.
