LIVE MARKET ALERT Copper prices eased during the session, with the contract hovering near 6.37 per pound, marking a slight 0.62% retreat. The pullback reflects modest profit-taking after recent strength, as traders reassessed near-term consumption prospects and supply dynamics.
Market sentiment remained cautious amid mixed industrial activity indicators. While inventories at key exchanges have shown some stability, slower manufacturing trends across major consumer regions have tempered enthusiasm for aggressive long positioning.
Key Drivers:
• Cautious demand outlook from manufacturing and construction sectors, limiting upside momentum.
• Balanced supply conditions and modest inventory changes keeping price movements contained.
