The content discusses copper prices reaching a record high of $11,771 per ton and the market conditions driving this increase, including Federal Reserve rate cuts and shrinking inventories on the London Metal Exchange.
Copper prices reached $11,771 per ton due to several factors: the U.S. Federal Reserve lowered its benchmark lending rate by 25 basis points (which weakens the dollar and makes dollar-priced commodities more affordable), and inventories on the LME are shrinking, making the market more sensitive to supply developments.
