Copper’s bullish run gains more speed
Thursday 25th February '21
Gradually improving economic data, strong Chinese demand and growing interest in emerging technologies that use copper (like electric vehicles) have given an additional impetus to copper’s bull run. Front month copper futures are up over 18% this month, as of 24 February. This takes copper’s gains to over 20% year to date compared to just over 14% for the Bloomberg Industrial Metals Subindex – an index that also includes aluminium, nickel, and zinc.
