Andy Home is the Senior Metals Columnist for Thomson Reuters. He's been covering the global metal markets for 30 years and call this unique era of de-globalization and geopolitical stand-offs as the most interesting time of his career. In fact, he nicknames this current moment in time the "Metallic Revolution."
We connected with Andy in London to talk about the current dynamics of the metals trade, how the west is competing with the like of Chinese demand and Russian supply following the invasion of Ukraine. Is the West prepared to meet its own demand in the years to come? And what needs to be done to get there?
First, we spend time profiling Andy's career, from independent metals newsletter writer to a long career at Reuters. There is a lot to take away from his insights and reporting for a better understanding of what is yet to come.
