Report summary
Copper prices remain volatile. Although economic uncertainty, weak PMIs and fresh Covid-19 lockdowns in Chinese cities have placed downward pressure on the price, the market has been and is being supported on the downside by persistent outflows of metal from LME sheds. Furthermore, supply continues to disappoint as Chilean and Peruvian copper production lags behind last year's levels. The announcement by MMG that it would progressively slow operations at Las Bambas helped 3-month prices rally above the US$8,000/t level on 4 November.
