NBS: Real estate investment will gradually return to a reasonable range

Fu Linghui, spokesman for the National Bureau of Statistics of China, said at a news conference today that the real estate investment situation is still declining, the completed area is increasing, and the overall construction area is reducing. Future real estate inavestment will stay in a low level. However, with the implementation of the real estate market adjustment measures, real estate investment will gradually return to a reasonable level.

NBS: China’s real estate market will shift from high speed to stable pace in the medium and long run

Fu Linghui, spokesman for the National Bureau of Statistics of China, said at a press conference today that the real estate market will stabilize in the future as the economy recovers and policies to promote the healthy development of the real estate sector take effect. From the perspective of demand, under the policy of “housing is for living rather than for speculating”, speculative housing demand has been gradually suppressed, and reasonable housing demand for rigidity and improvement has been released in an orderly manner. These will continue to drive real estate development. From the supply side, the business model of “high leverage, high debt and high turnover” of some real estate enterprises is difficult to maintain, and the supply of the real estate market is undergoing phased adjustment. As the effect of the adjustment shows, the market supply will gradually stabilize. In the medium and long term, China’s real estate market development is shifting from the past high-speed way to a steady development, which can be traced to the changes in the development stage of the real estate market and the adjustment of market supply and demand.

Panama Panel Backs Conditional Cobre Panamá Restart to Fund Eventual Closure

A Panamanian ministerial commission has recommended opening formal negotiations with First Quantum Minerals over a potential restart of Cobre Panamá. Under the proposal, the mine could resume operations without expanding its footprint, with operating revenue funding rehabilitation, long-term monitoring and an eventual orderly closure at no cost to the state. Any agreement would require all pending international arbitration claims to be terminated and could not be extended. The report did not specify the scale or duration of a restart. Cobre Panamá previously accounted for around 1% of global copper production. Until an agreement and timetable are confirmed, the near-term impact on copper concentrate supply remains limited.

Escondida supervisors vote 95% to authorise strike; talks enter mandatory mediation

Sindicato N°2 de Supervisores y Staff at BHP's Escondida copper mine in Chile rejected the company's final wage offer, with 95% voting to authorise strike action. The union of about 1,020 supervisors objected to limited pay improvements, multi-tasking requirements and a proposed 14x14 shift rotation. Chilean law now mandates at least five days of government mediation, extendable by five more, before any legal walkout. The mine produced 1.26 million tonnes in fiscal 2026, down 3% year on year, with fiscal 2027 guidance of 1.0-1.1 million tonnes. Production is currently unaffected, but the vote compounds supply risk after a fatal accident halted operations in late September.
