Dec-03-2019

Copper futures ended lower on Monday after US President Donald Trump said he would restore tariffs on metal imports from Brazil and Argentina. However, supportive Chinese economic data capped the downside for the red metal and eased lingering concerns over slowing economy due to a prolonged Sino-US trade war.

Copper futures for March delivery lost 0.4 percent to settle at $2.6505 a pound on the Comex metals division of New York Mercantile Exchange. While, copper on the London Metal Exchange ended up 0.32 percent at $5,883 a ton.
