iconAug 12, 2010 00:00

SHANGHAI, Aug. 12 (SMM) – As weak economic data from China and the US announced recently added to market worries about the global economic recovery, investors moved away from high-risk assets, and looked for the US dollar as safe-haven, helping the US dollar rally to above 82.5. In this context, LME copper prices continued its downward trend, down as low as USD 7,162/mt before ending at USD 7,195/mt, down USD 140/mt.

SMM believes the negative impact from unfavorable economic news will not last for a long time, and copper prices will rebound after absorbing the news.
