Copper futures end lower as demand dampens
Sep-22-2020

Copper futures ended lower on Monday as surging corona virus pandemic cases globally dampened demand for industrial metals, while a lack of stimulus from United States also weighing on sentiment. Further, a stronger US dollar making metals priced in the US currency more expensive for buyers using other currencies.

Copper futures for December delivery lost $0.0840 to settle at $3.0320 a pound on the Comex metals division of New York Mercantile Exchange. Copper on the London Metal Exchange was down 1.78% at $6,691.50 a ton.
