Copper futures trade higher on global supply ripples
Copper futures trade higher on global supply ripples

Copper futures were trading higher on Monday tracking steady dollar overseas ahead of the looming US third-quarter GDP Annualized for Q3 due on Tuesday, which will provide insights into the economy’s health and help gauge the timing of the Federal Reserve’s next interest-rate moves. Copper prices gained further after Chilean miner Antofagasta and a Chinese smelter agreed on a zero-processing fee for 2026 copper concentrate, while top consumer China kept the benchmark loan prime rates unchanged in line with market expectations.

Copper futures for March delivery rose $0.0250 or 0.45% at $5.5350 a pound on the Comex metals division of New York Mercantile Exchange.
