【Trump's Tariff Threat Combined With Chilean Copper Mine Power Outage Jointly Influence Copper Price Trends】

The countries most affected would be Chile, Canada, and Mexico, intensifying market concerns. Additionally, weak economic data from the US and Germany heightened worries about slowing energy demand. Meanwhile, some countries indicated potential increases in oil production, pushing oil prices to a two-month low, with copper prices also declining in tandem.
