What drives the copper price

Copper is the metal of electrification - grids, EVs, renewables and data centres - and of Chinese construction and manufacturing. Supply is slow to respond: new mines take a decade, grades are falling and output from Chile, Peru and the DRC is prone to disruption.

Copper explorers trade on the copper price times the metal they might find, so they move harder than the producers. What moves copper stocks - ASX copper stocks.
