What is Copper?
Copper: the metal that wires the world, and a gauge of the global economy.
Copper goes into construction, power grids, electronics and electric vehicles, so demand for it rises and falls with industrial activity. China consumes about half of the world’s supply.
Traders read it as a signal of economic health. Chinese data, mine disruptions in Chile and Peru, and tariffs on metals move it; the build-out of power grids and data centres supports long-term demand.
