Copper ends up near record, tin posts new peak

* Copper nears record high on global growth view

* LME inventory builds seen as speculative bet

* Tin climbs to new record above $30,000 per tonne

* Coming up: U.S. regional manufacturing data Monday 

Copper prices closed 1.5 percent away from its record high on Friday, after data showing the U.S. economic expansion picked up in the fourth quarter reaffirmed robust global demand prospects for the industrial metal.

The copper market continued to feed off of the extended rally in tin prices, which climbed to another all-time peak at $30,040 a tonne -- their sixth in as many sessions -- as supply fears in major exporter Indonesia continued to spur bullish momentum.

Copper for three-month delivery on the London Metal Exchange rose $194 to close at $9,635 a tonne, just $146 or about 1.5 percent away from its Jan. 19 peak at $9,781.

COMEX copper for March delivery firmed 3.45 cents to settle at $4.3730 per lb on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

A late-session dip into negative territory from safe-haven flows into other markets due to unrest in Egypt was short-lived and copper prices regained their composure to close near their session highs.

Often viewed as being a good barometer for the global economy, copper prices rallied on data showing the U.S. economy regain its pre-recession peak, led by a big gain in consumer spending and strong exports.

"Business spending on equipment and software up 15 percent last year, computers and related equipment up 27 percent, auto and auto parts up 3.3, household furnishings and appliances up 8.7 percent ... all of that says copper," said Frank Lesh, a broker and futures analyst with Future Path Trading in Chicago.

Copper prices continued to defy a bearish trend in LME inventories since early December. Those stocks went up by another 800 tonnes to 398,075 tonnes, their highest level since early September.

But some market analysts saw the inventory builds as nothing more than a speculative bet on the market price.

"Futures are not inventory scorecards," said Howard Simons, a strategist at Bianco Research Group in Chicago. "You can have a rise in inventories and a rise in prices because people are pulling copper into storage ... it becomes a hoarding game.

"If you're going to get 3 to 3.5 percent global GDP growth this year, you're going to be in a tight supply situation in copper and it might not be a bad speculative bet to hoard it."

On the production front, Chilean copper output fell 1.6 percent in December compared with a year earlier, but it remained stable for 2010 as a whole, with annual production of 5.412 million tonnes.

Looking to next week, top consumer China goes on holiday for the Lunar New Year. China accounts for nearly 40 percent of global copper consumption.

SIZZLING TIN

Tin prices continued to fire on all cylinders, making it the best performing industrial metal this year with a gain of 10 percent.

Indonesia, which supplies nearly 30 percent of the world's tin consumption, producing an estimated 105,000 tonnes in 2010, has been struggling with rain that hampered production last month.

A senior mining official said the country would restrict annual output to a maximum 100,000 tonnes if high prices trigger a scramble for the metal.

"Of all the base metals, tin has had the best fundamentals," said Nic Brown, head of commodities research, economics and strategy at Natixis. "Supply appears relatively constrained ... Demand remains strong. You have a deficit in the market that is gradually eroding available stockpiles and there is limited capacity for substitution into other materials."

But tin's limited liquidity could catch unaware investors off-guard, unable to turn paper profits into real money.

Tin closed at $29,600 a tonne, up from Thursday's last bid of $29,075.

LME aluminum was last quoted at $2,472/$2,473 a tonne, up from $2,427 a tonne on Thursday. It was supported by a first-time confirmation from Deutsche Bank that around 2 million tonnes of the metal are tied up in financing deals.

Financing deals to extended lead times for withdrawal at LME-registered warehouses kept market conditions tight and the U.S. Midwest aluminum premium steady in the first few weeks of the year. Source: Reuters

Sinar Mas, HK's LCNC in talks to buy Mandala Air

Indonesian conglomerate Sinar Mas Group and Hong Kong-based airplane leasing firm LCNC are each in talks to buy debt-ridden Mandala Airlines after it ceased operations two weeks ago, said Herry Bhakti Singayuda at Indonesia's transport ministry on Friday.

"The talks are ongoing and Mandala will report to the government next week on who will be the new owner," Singayuda, the director general for aviation, told Reuters.

Mandala, a budget carrier serving 13 domestic destinations, suspended all flights on Jan 13 as the company struggled with debt problems. Source: Reuters

Indonesia to restrict tin output if record price triggers mining rush

Indonesia, the world's top tin exporter, will restrict annual tin output at a maximum 100,000 tonnes if record high prices trigger a mining rush, two officials told Reuters on Friday.

The trade ministry will also revoke export permits from tin smelters which have not exported the metal or have been idle for years, the officials said.

A crackdown on illegal mining from 2006, tighter export regulations, declining onshore reserves and rainy weather hampering miners in Indonesia have helped drive tin prices to record highs. Source: Reuters

Indonesia suspends rice, soybean duties to combat inflation

 * Measure aims to help fight high inflation

* Indonesia imported bumper rice volume, seeks sugar

* Sugar import duties remain unchanged 

Indonesia will suspend import duties on rice, soybeans and wheat as part of government efforts to fight inflation and the president warned about the global risks posed by scarce resources, as countries grapple with escalating food costs. 

Rising food prices across many parts of the world have been partly responsible for a number of protests in the last week and world leaders warned on Thursday they risked stoking more unrest and even war. 

Indonesia surprised markets this week by buying nearly 5 times as much rice as expected, lifting regional prices, and the measure to remove rice duty until its own harvest in March could signal it may be looking to stockpile more of the staple. 

Fresh demand from Indonesia and Bangladesh for rice is sending a worrying sign the region's main staple may join a price surge for other grains, worsening Asia's spiralling food inflation. Elsewhere, countries like Algeria are rushing to buy grains, a move seen heading off unrest over food prices as protests swept north Africa. 

Food price protests were seen as a major factor in the ousting of Indonesia's long-term autocratic ruler Suharto in 1998, and investor worries over inflation at a 20-month high in December led to a sell-off in Indonesian markets this month. 

"Globally there is increasing pressure on governments, especially developing countries where food prices represents a higher proportion of their CPI basket, to implement some immediate measures to fight inflation and avoid civil unrest," said Chen Xin Yi, analyst at Barclays Capital. 

Southeast Asia's biggest economy also suspended import duties for soybeans and wheat for all of 2011, but maintained duties on sugar despite high prices for the sweetener causing state firms to fail to buy any in recent tenders. 

Rising food prices, especially for rice and chillis, have been at the top of Indonesian policy makers' agendas after they helped drive annual December inflation to near 7 percent, leading economists to call for rate hikes and President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono to ask people to start planting food at home. 

Yudhoyono told the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos that the next economic war could be over the race for scarce resources, due to the pressure on food, energy, water and resources, as the world population could top 9 billion by 2045. 

"They are trying everything to add commodity supply into the country," said Wellian Wiranto, economist at HSBC. "It's a good thing for inflation, to ease the bottleneck of domestic supply from overseas. But don't depend on it too much to tame inflation." 

Traders are speculating on what other commodities may see import duties cut. The archipelago is reliant on imports of wheat, sugar and soy from Australia, Thailand and the United States, and occasionally buys rice if government stocks are low.

Indonesia hasn't seen food protests so far. Costs may have eased this month, but the price of rice -- a staple for its 240 million population -- is still high, partly because the main harvest has not yet started. 

Earlier this week, Indonesia's state buying agency Bulog bought a hefty 820,000 tonnes of rice from Thai exporters for prompt shipment, traders and industry officials said. 

The United Nations' food agency (FAO) this week warned food producing countries against introducing export curbs to protect local markets as world food prices rose close to levels that sparked food riots in 2007/2008, while top executives in Davos rejected calls for curbs on commodity speculation. 

Indonesia's scrapping of import duty for rice of 450 rupiah per kg is unlikely to be extended beyond that date because imports of the staple are not allowed during the main harvest, which traditionally runs from March to April. 

"Import duties for both soybean and wheat should return to normal levels of 5 percent each by January 2012," Bambang Brodjonegoro, the head of the fiscal policy office at the finance ministry, told reporters. 

NO CHEAP NOODLES

A soybean industry official said the duty cut would be good for many producers and consumers, although Indonesian farmers would be unhappy as it might harm domestic production. 

He added the decision to cut import duties was not a surprise and the present situation was not the same as in 2008 when import taxes were suspended because of record prices. 

He said the import duty cut would ultimately help soybean imports, but maintained an import forecast of 1.7-1.75 million tonnes in 2011.

Indonesia imports 70 percent of its annual soybean requirements mostly from the United States, the world's top exporter, and depends entirely on imported wheat, mostly from Australia. 

"We want the duty to stay zero," said a wheat industry official. "Wheat is Indonesia's second staple diet after rice. The farming industry will reject any further duty increases."

Higher wheat prices led Indonesia's PT Indofood CBP Sukses Makmur , the world's top noodle maker, to say this week it had lifted the price of its instant noodles by roughly 10 percent a pack, which could further push up domestic inflation. 

"The abolishment of import duty will help to some extent to ease input cost pressure for companies such as Indofood Sukses, Indofood CBP and Mayora," said Wilianto Ie, head of Indonesian equity research at Nomura in a note on Friday. 

Some sugar traders were also hoping for a reduction on import duties, after two white sugar tenders recently failed due to high prices. The tenders were part of plans to bring in 450,000 tonnes to bridge an anticipated production shortfall. 

"This creates difficulties for imported sugar now, due to sugar prices rising," said a sugar trader. "Those with import licenses are complaining.". Source: Reuters

UPDATE 1--Bank Mandiri Q4 net profit falls 14 pct-govt

* Bank Mandiri 2010 net profit seen at 8.6 trln rph-govt
* Mandiri Q4 profit at 2.22 trln rph-Reuters calculation
* Bank Rakyat 2010 net profit at 8.5 trln rph-govt
* Bank Negara 2010 net seen at about 2 trln rph-govt

PT Bank Mandiri , Indonesia's largest lender, posted a 14 percent slump in fourth quarter 2010 net profit, as higher provisioning may have squeezed earnings, according to Reuters calculations based on government figures.

The drop comes as investors have reduced their bullishness on Indonesian assets this month on worries over inflation and high valuations, after years of sustained profit growth when Indonesian lenders took advantage of record low interest rates and growing consumer demand in Southeast Asia's biggest economy.

State enterprises minister Mustafa Abubakar said Mandiri earned 8.6 trillion rupiah ($952.7 million) in 2010, in line with expectations by analysts polled by Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S for 8.657 trillion rupiah. Full year profit was up 19 percent from 7.2 trillion rupiah in 2009.
Mandiri posted 2.2 trillion rupiah of net profit in the fourth quarter, according to Reuters calculations based on the published nine-month financial result. 

"The figure is expected, I suspect Mandiri has a higher provisioning in the last quarter," said Teguh Hartanto, a senior banking analyst at PT Bahana Securities.

Mandiri's CEO Zulkifli Zaini told Reuters earlier this week that he saw 2011 net profit up by at least 2 trillion rupiah on 2010. 

Mandiri has the most diversified loan book composition among the top banks, giving investors exposure to the entire credit demand spectrum said Nomura, on raising the bank to "buy" from "neutral" in a note on Friday.

Mandiri's stock traded down 0.8 percent by 0706 GMT while the broader market fell 1.2 percent. The stock gained 38 percent in 2010, underperforming the index's 46 percent rally.
PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia , the second biggest lender, posted 8.5 trillion rupiah of net profit in 2010, Abubakar said, up 16 percent.

This failed to meet expectations for full-year 2010 net profit of 9.037 trillion rupiah, according to the consensus of analysts polled by Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
"It shows that margins were squeezed due to greater competition in microlending," Hartanto said.

BRI's Q4 net profit fell 8 percent to 1.8 trillion rupiah from the year-ago period, according to Reuters calculations based on published first nine month results.

Abubakar also said that PT Bank Negara Indonesia , the fourth biggest bank, was seen posting 2 trillion rupiah of net profit in 2010, down from 2.48 trillion a year earlier.

This would mean the bank may have failed to meet its expectations for full year 2010 net profit to rise 80 percent, and would be well below analyst forecasts for 3.868 trillion rupiah, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.

BRI and BNI shares traded down 2.9 percent and 1.5 percent respectively, to underperform the broader market. ($1 = 9027 Rupiah)

Indonesian Stocks Slump a ‘Buying Opportunity,’ Nomura Says

Investors should see the Jakarta Composite Index’s recent decline as a “buying opportunity” as Indonesia’s economy will benefit from “strong” commodity prices while “runaway” inflation is unlikely, Nomura Holdings Companies Inc. said.

Antam Akuisisi Tambang Batubara Rp 92,5 Miliar

PT Indonesia Coal Resources (ICR), anak usaha PT Aneka Tambang Tbk (ANTM), telah mengakuisisi tambang batubara Sarolangun yang berlokasi di Jambi. Nilai akuisisi sebesar Rp 92,5 miliar dan menjadi awal bagi ICR untuk mengembangkan bisnisnya di bidang pertambangan batubara.

Selama ini, ANTAM merupakan perusahaan yang bergerak di bisnis tambang logam, seperti nikel, emas, dan bauksit. ANTAM belum pernah menggeluti bisnis batubara. Oleh karenanya, langkah ICR yang merupakan anak usaha ANTAM, secara tidak langsung menunjukkan perluasan bisnis ANTAM ke bisnis batubara.

Tambang batuara Sarolangun telah berproduksi sejak Juni 2010 dengan produksi sepanjang 2010 mencapai sekitar 200 ribu ton. ICR berencana meningkatkan kapasitas produksinya sekitar 500 ribu ton pada 2011. Penjualan ditujukan ke konsumen dalam negeri dan India.

Cadangan batubara Sarolangun mencapai 8,25 juta ton dengan kualitas batubara 5.300-5.500 Kcal/kg.  Menurut manajemen ANTAM, pembentukan ICR merupakan bagian dari dari strategi ANTAM untuk dapat mendukung rencana pembangunan PLTU batubara untuk memasok sebagian kebutuhan listrik di fasilitas feronikel perseroan.

Indonesian Stocks May Rebound 18% After Recent Plunge: Technical Analysis

Indonesia’s stocks may rise 18 percent after the benchmark index’s slump to a key Fibonacci support level created a “compelling entry point,” Auerbach Grayson & Co. said. 

The Jakarta Composite index plunged 12 percent from its Dec. 9 record through Jan. 24 as overseas investors exited the nation’s stocks on concern faster inflation would spur higher borrowing costs in Southeast Asia’s biggest economy. A drop of 10 percent or more from a peak signifies a so-called correction to some analysts and investors. 

“Our analysis suggests that the 10 percent correction to a key Fibonacci support has created a compelling entry point,” Richard Ross, global technical strategist at Auerbach Grayson in New York, wrote in a note yesterday. “The well-defined uptrend remains intact.” 

Ross said his initial upside target for the gauge is 4,126, an 18 percent gain from yesterday’s closing level of 3,501.72. The index surged 46 percent last year, the best performer among Asia’s 15 biggest markets, as record-low interest rates helped boost economic growth and corporate earnings. The measure advanced 1 percent to 3,536.54 at the 12 p.m. local-time break. 

The central bank has kept interest rates at a record low even as the fastest inflation in 20 months threatens incomes for Indonesians, 29 percent of whom earn less than $2 a day. Policy makers in countries from India to Thailand have boosted borrowing costs in the past 10 months to curb rising prices.

Indonesian stocks’ decline is a buying opportunity, as the rural-based economy will benefit from rising commodity prices while avoiding runaway inflation, Willianto Ie, an analyst at Nomura Holdings Inc., wrote in a note today. “The valuation of the Indonesian market is still far from demanding,” he said. 

Foreign investors as of Jan. 25 sold a net $428 million of Indonesian stocks this month, the most since May 2005, data compiled by Bloomberg show. 

Ross said Auerbach Grayson favors mining stocks. The Jakarta Mining Index is in a “strong technical position,” with miners displaying relative strength through the recent correction, he wrote. “Bullish trends are accelerating.” The mining gauge advanced 1.7 percent today, paring an annual loss to 1.2 percent.

PGN plans 1.5-2 mln T LNG terminal in Sumatra

PT Perusahaan Gas Negara (PGN) , Indonesia's biggest gas distributor, said on Thursday a planned floating LNG regasification terminal in northern Sumatra will have a capacity of 1.5 to 2 million tonnes a year.

PGN has appointed Foster Wheeler to manage the terminal project in Belawan and a tender for engineering is expected to be finished by early in the second quarter, PGN's corporate Secretary Wahid Sutopo said at a gas conference in Jakarta.

"The capacity of the terminal will be around 200 million cubic feed per day of gas or 1.5 to 2 million tonnes per year," Sutopo told Reuters, declining to give a figure for investment.
PGN also plans together with state energy firm PT Pertamina a floating LNG receiving terminal near Jakarta with capacity of around 3 million tonnes a year, to be built by Golar LNG .

Indonesia, the world's number-three LNG exporter after Qatar and Malaysia, is increasing its use of natural gas at home to avoid costly imports and dwindling domestic supply. Its exports of LNG will fall to 362 cargoes this year from 427 in 2010. Source: Reuters

Panasonic May Double Production Capacity for LED Light Bulbs in Two Years

Panasonic Corp. may double its production capacity for light bulbs using light-emitting diodes within two years to tap the growing market for energy-saving devices, an executive said. 

Sales of LED lamps in Japan may surge 64 percent next fiscal year, Yoshio Ito, president of Panasonic’s lighting business, said in an interview yesterday.

“We won’t be able to attain our target unless we at least double our capacity,” Ito said. Panasonic plans to boost sales of the light bulbs outside Japan as well, he said. 

Japan’s largest maker of home appliances expects sales at its lighting unit will jump 43 percent to 100 billion yen ($1.2 billion) by March 2013, Ito said. The Osaka-based company faces competition in the light-emitting diode market from manufacturers including Toshiba Corp. and Royal Philips Electronics NV, the world’s biggest lighting company. 

Panasonic rose 0.5 percent to 1,160 yen as of 9:23 a.m. in Tokyo trading. The benchmark Nikkei 225 Stock Average gained 0.6 percent. 

Panasonic makes LED bulbs at factories in China and Indonesia and has an annual production capacity of about 6 million units, Ito said. 

The company aims to win half of the market for LED lamps in Japan in the fiscal year ending March 2011, when industrywide sales may increase to 18 million units from 11 million in the current fiscal year, Ito said. Panasonic may also need to make 3 million to 4 million units for overseas sales next fiscal year, he said.  Source: Bloomberg

Indofood lifts instant noodle price, may push up inflation

PT Indofood CBP Sukses Makmur , the world's top noodle maker, has raised the price of its instant noodles by roughly 10 percent a pack, in a move that lifted its share price over 4 percent but that could also push up the country's inflation.

The firm raised the price of its top brand Indomie by 100 rupiah (1.1 cents) a pack in mid-January, Franciscus Welirang, a director at parent company PT Indofood Sukses Makmur, said on Wednesday.

Higher wheat prices have affected Indonesia, which relies entirely on imports for its wheat. Southeast Asia's largest economy consumed 4.39 million tonnes of wheat flour last year, a 10.5 percent increase from 2009.

Rising prices of instant noodles, which along with rice are considered a staple food for the majority of Indonesians, may push up inflation this month, said Djamal, a deputy at the country's statistics bureau.

"If the consumption is high, it will impact inflation. Based on our records, on average the price of chilli has dropped slightly, while rice still rises a bit," he said.

Last week, the statistics bureau head said monthly inflation in January would be around 0.5 percent, and inflationary pressures would not be as high as last month, when inflation reached a 20-month high at 6.96 percent year-on-year because of rising food costs.

Higher-than-expected inflation in January will pressure the central bank to raise rates, which it has held at a record low 6.5 percent for over a year.

Investors have sold off Indonesian assets this year on worries the central bank may be behind the curve in tackling inflation. Indofood's rally on Wednesday pushed its stock up 1.6 percent for the year, versus a 5.5 percent decline for the index . ($1 = 9,036 rupiah). Source: Reuters

Indonesia’s Trading Permit Delays Disrupt Exports of Resources

The Indonesian government’s delay in issuing trading permits has disrupted commodity exports from the country including coal, officials said. 

The new Indonesian mining law requires traders to convert their old permits to the mining business license issued by the Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry before they are allowed to ship products overseas, said Djunaedi, head of mining exports at the Trade Ministry. 

“The energy ministry halted the process for giving out the license while waiting for the ministerial decree to be issued,” Djunaedi, who uses one name, said in an interview in Jakarta today. The requirement is applied to exports of other mining products such as bauxite and gold, he said, adding that producers are still allowed to export. 

The mining law was imposed in 2009 with the aim of controlling minerals and coal mining, as well as limit environmental damage in Southeast Asia’s biggest economy. Witoro Soelarno, secretary to the director general of coal and minerals, didn’t answer two calls to his mobile phone seeking comment. 

Hundreds of coal traders were forced to halt shipments pending the approval of licenses, said Bob Kamandanu, head of the Indonesian Coal Mining Association. 

“The energy minister has ordered the director general of coal to process all applications,” Kamandanu said by phone from Jakarta. Exports will return to normal when traders receive licenses, he said. 

Refined tin exports are exempted from the new regulation as only registered producers and exporters at the trade ministry are allowed to ship the metal, Djunaedi said. Indonesia, the world’s largest shipper of the metal used for soldering and packaging, has 34 registered exporters. Source: Bloomberg

UPDATE 1-Indonesian tin output seen down; Bangka rains easing -sources

* Bangka region sees less rain; tin prices at record high
* Indonesia needs investment in expensive dredgers
* Indonesian tin output seen 10 pct lower in 2011 (Adds quotes, details)

Heavy rains are easing in Indonesia's main producing area of Bangka island, although exports in January are still expected to be as much as 35 percent lower than last month, industry sources said on Wednesday.

Analysts see little respite, with a lack of investment in Indonesia's tin industry expected to push already soaring prices to fresh records in 2011, as demand rises for the metal, used in electronics, plating and lead-free solders.

Benchmark tin on the London Metal Exchange hit a record high at $28,698 a tonne on Wednesday, as persistent worries about supplies from Indonesia boosted prices.

Heavy rains and floods caused by the La Nina weather phenomenon have hit tin miners in Indonesia in recent months, squeezing supply from the world's top exporter of the metal.
Indonesia's tin exports in January are seen at a maximum of 5,000 tonnes compared with 7,722 tonnes in December, the Indonesian Tin Industry Association said.

"Exports would be around 5,000 tonnes maximum in January," said Rudi Irawan, vice chairman at the association and director at independent smelter CV Stania Prima. "Rains have eased but we still have high waves because of the monsoon."

He added, "We have depleting onshore reserves and high waves offshore. There are only several smelters now fully-operational, mostly because either they have strong financing or have its own mines."




DRY SEASON TO START
Indonesia's weather agency forecast this month that the dry season is likely to start in most areas only in July.

The heavy rains now appear to be easing.

"We have changed our mining plan so weather is not an issue any more," said Darmansyah, a spokesman at PT Koba Tin in Bangka island. "Tin shipments have been smooth."
Bangka island, off Sumatra's east coast, is the world's largest tin-producing area.

He added that Koba Tin's production would be higher this year than the figure of around 5,000 tonnes last year, but gave no details.
"There is clearly an issue with supply going forward," said a Singapore-based analyst. "It is a bit tighter now because of the weather -- it has been raining since November.
"Normally when this clears up, which should be next month, you will see more material coming out of Indonesia."


INVESTMENT NEEDED
Production in Indonesia has also been hit by a police crackdown on illegal mining, stricter environmental and export rules, and the depletion of easily mined onshore reserves.


Indonesia, the world's second-largest producer after China, has also struggled to lure foreign investment into mining, compounded by some politicians taking a nationalist line on resource exploitation and also because of uncertainty over regulations tied to a new mining law passed in 2008.

"Large investments are needed for Indonesia to sustain the production that they've had over the last couple of years," the analyst said. "A lot more has to come from off-shore -- this is more expensive. You are looking at dredgers that go a lot deeper.

"If you look at the amount of investment needed, and the intrinsic value of the metal, then it will be a bit too risky for the Rio Tintos of this world."
Indonesia supplies nearly 30 percent of the world's tin consumption, and most of it comes from Bangka.

Tin production in Southeast Asia's largest economy is estimated to be around 105,000 tonnes in 2010.
From Indonesia the metal is shipped to Malaysia via Singapore, where it is given London Metal Exchange branding, and then sold on the Kuala Lumpur Tin Market or directly to consumers in Europe. It is also exported to Thailand.

"You are going to see production fall to the tune of 10 percent, even though higher prices will incentivize people to be a bit more risky with mining," said the analyst, adding that he sees tin prices peaking at $35,000 a tonne in 2011.

Soaring demand will help send tin almost 38 percent higher this year, a Reuters poll showed this week.
The survey of 51 analysts showed the cash tin price would average $27,000 a tonne this year, and rise to $27,419 next year.

LME tin is expected to rise to $34,455 per tonne over the next four weeks, going by its wave pattern and a Fibonacci projection analysis, Reuters technical analyst Wang Tao said.
An annual survey by tin consultants ITRI this week said 2009 world usage of refined tin was estimated just over 320,000 tonnes, with 2010 global tin consumption rising by 12.5 percent to an estimated 360,300 tonnes. Source: Reuters

Garuda to raise $476 mln in IPO, priced at 750 rph/share

PT Garuda Indonesia, the nation's flag carrier, is set to raise 4.301 trillion rupiah ($476 million) from an initial public offering in February, less than expected after setting a share price of 750 rupiah, a government minister said on Wednesday.


The share price was at the bottom of the 750-1,100 rupiah initial range set two weeks ago after weak demand as foreign investors were scared away by the the offer's rich pricing.
The firm will sell 5.735 billion new and existing shares, down from earlier plans to sell 9.362 billion shares, said state enterprises minister Mustafa Abubakar.

The price level and cut to the offering size, confirming a Reuters story on Tuesday, showed Garuda Indonesia's hopes for a high-flying $1.1 billion IPO have failed to get off the ground.
After a surge in interest in Southeast Asia's largest economy last year and a recovery in the global airline industry, appetite for the Garuda deal has sharply fallen.

Garuda's IPO is the first of a slew of state enterprises due for flotation this year and will also be closely watched by flag carrier Vietnam Airlines, which is planning to go public this year. ($1 = 9036.5 Rupiah). Source: Reuters

Pertamina sees 750 bln rph from Tuga Pratama IPO

Indonesia's state oil and gas firm PT Pertamina expects to raise 750 billion rupiah ($83 million) from its subsidiary insurance firm PT Tugu Pratama's initial public offering (IPO), Pertamina's finance director said on Wednesday.

Tugu Pratama plans to sell 20 to 30 percent of new shares in the IPO, which is expected to be launched in the first half of this year.  Source: Reuters

LME tin hits record on Indonesia supply worries

London Metal Exchange tin rallied to a record high on Wednesday, supported by gains in other metals and worries about supply from top exporter Indonesia.

Benchmark tin rose $55 to $28,250 a tonne, while copper rallied 1 percent to $9,343, paring sharp losses in the previous session.

New Indonesia trade rule causes delay to some coal shipments-sources

A new Indonesian trade rule has caused delay to some coal shipments, particularly to Indian buyers, which could tighten supply from the world's top thermal coal exporter, said trade sources on Wednesday.

The trade ministry ordered surveyors in January to temporarily stop issuing surveyor reports to traders who are in the process of reapplying for trading permits under a new coal and mining law system. The surveyor reports are documents required for shipping the fuel.
Traders could not confirm how many cargoes were being delayed, but said vessels were being held up at ports. Source: Reuters

Shortfall talk pushes tin to record high

The price of tin, the metal used in soldering and packaging, jumped to a record high as traders braced for another year of supply shortfalls.

Peter Kettle, of the International Tin Research Institute, expects tin demand to outstrip supply by about 20,000 tonnes in 2011, following a shortfall of 22,000 tonnes last year that drove a 59 per cent rally in prices.

London Metal Exchange inventories of tin are just 17,550 tonnes.

“There’s not a lot happening in terms of building new supplies,” Mr Kettle said. “Longer term, we will see new mines starting up, but . . . it will probably take 2-3 years.”

On Tuesday, the benchmark tin contract for delivery in three months on the London Metal Exchange rose 0.7 per cent to $28,200 a tonne. 

Although all eyes have focused on copper, the darling of hedge funds, mining executives and commodity bankers, tin has been the best performing industrial metal on the LME so far this year, rising 5 per cent. Copper is down 4.2 per cent, trading at $9,270 a tonne on Tuesday, while nickel is the only other metal to have posted a gain in the year to date.

David Wilson, base metals analyst at Société Générale in London, said tin prices could touch $30,000 a tonne on the back of stagnating mine supply. “I see constrained supply being the key driver,” Mr Wilson said. “There has been such a long-term lack of investment in mine capacity.”

Tin prices have surged 180 per cent since the depths of the financial crisis as consumption by the electronics industry has rebounded. 

Global refined tin demand rose 12.5 per cent in 2010 to 360,000 tonnes, according to an ITRI survey released on Tuesday, with consumption by the solder industry contributing to the bulk of the increase. Chinese tin consumption rose to a record 147,000 tonnes.

However, Mr Kettle expected demand growth to moderate in 2011. 

High prices have not yet led to large-scale substitution out of tin by manufacturers, Mr Kettle added, but he warned: “We are worried as an industry about the difficult position that consumers are in. 

“If prices go higher, it will stimulate long-term efforts to find other materials, which could hit the industry five or 10 years down the line.” Source: Financial Times

Newmont Sues Indonesia's Merukh for Breaching Terms of $300 Million Loan

Two units of Newmont Mining Corp., the world’s second-largest gold producer, are suing its Indonesian partner and businessman Jusuf Merukh in Singapore for reneging on the terms tied to a $300 million loan agreement. 

Newmont Indonesia Ltd. and NVL (USA) Ltd. sued Merukh’s PT Pukuafu Indah and five of his family members in a bid to get legal proceedings in Jakarta dropped as agreed under the loan, according to papers filed with the Singapore High Court. A closed hearing is scheduled for Jan. 28. 

Newmont and Pukuafu are among shareholders of PT Newmont Nusa Tenggara, which operates the Batu Hijau gold and copper mine on Indonesia’s Sumbawa Island. Pukuafu has filed five lawsuits in Jakarta against Greenwood Village, Colorado-based miner Newmont disputing the ownership of the mine. Pukuafu claims it’s entitled to a 31 percent stake while Newmont says it properly reduced its ownership. 

The Merukhs and their legal representatives failed to turn up for arbitration in Singapore that ordered their Indonesian proceedings to be halted, according to court papers. 

“We don’t know about Newmont’s plan to sue us in Singapore about the loan agreement,” Tri Asnawanto, Pukuafu’s vice president of legal and external affairs, said by phone late yesterday. “But we are ready to face it because we are not in breach of any agreement.” 

Pukuafu is a unit of Merukh Enterprise Corp., controlled by politician and businessman Jusuf Merukh, which has interests ranging from hotels to gold, copper and coal mines in Indonesia. 

Additional Litigation

The family and Pukuafu “not only failed to terminate the Indonesian litigation as promised, but in fact, over time commenced additional litigation before the Indonesian courts, Newmont said. 

Pukuafu “has steadfastly refused to cooperate,” after benefitting from the loan and Newmont’s “indulgences,” the U.S. company said in court papers. At least $260 million of the loan has been drawn, Newmont said. 

Newmont extended the $300 million loan to Pukuafu in 2009 after the Indonesian company defaulted on payments to its bondholders.

Blake Rhodes, Newmont’s deputy general counsel, said the company had no choice but to initiate court proceedings in Singapore. 

“Despite repeated attempts urging Pukuafu and members of the Merukh family to live up to their contractual obligations, they have not,” Rhodes said in an e-mailed statement.

Adani, Reddy Lead India's Billionaires in $15 Billion Indonesia Expansion

Indian companies led by billionaires Gautam Adani and G.V. Krishna Reddy signed accords worth $15 billion for projects including airports, steel plants, ports and railroads in Indonesia. 

A GVK Power & Infrastructure Ltd.-led venture will spend as much as $4 billion to build two airports in Indonesia and Adani Group signed a deal to build a railway and port worth about $1.8 billion, the companies said separately yesterday. Indian companies including Tata Power Ltd. signed 18 agreements with Indonesia, according to a government statement. 

Indian companies that have built utilities, sea ports, airports and factories at home are leveraging their experience to win projects overseas. Indonesia has supplies of coal that companies such as Tata Power may seek to tap, said P. Phani Sekhar of Angel Broking Ltd. 

“There is great similarity” between India and Indonesia, said Sekhar, a fund manager at Mumbai-based Angel Broking. “There is domestic opportunity and the natural resources of Indonesia are far too tempting.” 

GVK Power signed an agreement with Badan Koordinasi Penanaman Modal, a board set up by Indonesia to facilitate investments, and PT Pembangunan Bali Mandiri, which promotes airport development, to build two airports in North Bali and Yogyakarta, Java, the Hyderabad-based company said in a statement yesterday. 

GVK Power, which is building an airport in Mumbai and manages an airport in Bangalore, also operates power generation plants across India, according to its website. 

Track Record

“Our capabilities, expertise and strong track record in the airports sector is well established in India,” said Reddy. “This agreement will yield significant synergies.” 

Adani Enterprises Ltd. signed an agreement for setting up a rail link and a port project with the regional government of Sumatra Selatan and PT Tambang Batubara Bukit Asam, a coal mining company, the Ahmedabad, India-based company said in a news release yesterday. 

The project involves the construction of a 250-kilometer (155 miles) railroad linking a coal mining area with a port that will also be built by the collaborating companies, Adani said. 

The Adani Group, which operates ports, power plants, sells edible oils and distributes gas, in August purchased coal assets in Australia. Earlier this month, the company bought two ships to transport coal from its mines in Indonesia and Australia. 

‘Closer to Goal’

“These initiatives in Indonesia, Australia and even in India will bring us closer to achieve our stated goal of 20,000 megawatts of power generation, 200 million metric tons per annum of coal mining, 200 MMTPA of cargo handling and owning 20 capesize ships by 2020,” Chairman Gautam Adani said in a statement yesterday. 

International Coal Ventures Ltd., which consists of Indian state-run metal and energy companies, plans to invest $3 billion to build a steel plant in Indonesia. 

“Indonesia is prioritizing the development of power generation, transport networks, ports and airports,” President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono told reporters in New Delhi. “We have revitalized the investment climate for infrastructure building by the private sector.” 

Yudhoyono said India and Indonesia have pledged to double bilateral trade to $25 billion by 2015 from the current level of about $12 billion. 

This is Yudhoyono’s first state visit to India since 2005 when the countries announced a strategic partnership aimed at enhancing trade and political ties. He will be the chief guest at Republic Day celebrations today. Source: Bloomberg
