Tin and Transformers and power electronics
Their prices have moved together.
Tin (commodity) and Transformers and power electronics (energy): 1 relationship.
How they are linked
1. Price link: solder demand
Cost and price · Moderate · Both ways
Every circuit board and power module is soldered, so electronics and power equipment output drives tin demand. The proxy is a US transformer price index, which correlates only weakly with tin: 0.14 monthly and 0.38 yearly.
- 0.14 monthly change correlation
- 0.38 12-month change correlation
- 1.13 fitted elasticity
