Strong Dollar Weighs on Copper Prices as Rate Cut Hopes Grow

Last week saw the price of copper drop slightly, pressured by increasing expectations of a reduction in interest rates by the Federal Reserve and a firmer dollar. On the London Metal Exchange, three-month copper hit $10,780.50 per metric ton, representing a 0.2% increase.  According to CME FedWatch, markets now price a 78% chance of a 25-basis point reduction in rates this month. This is quite an increase from the 41% probability recorded a week earlier.  The red metal’s prices are expected to increase in 2026, pointing to ongoing supply challenges caused by repeated mine disruptions and long-term demand from clean-energy…

US Copper Production Stays Steady in 2025

As the year comes to a close, copper output in the United States holds firm at 1,077,000 tons. This figure represents an increase of about 1.7% as compared to last year’s output. Experts attribute this slight increase to reduced output from major operations like the Phoenix mine and the Kennecott Copper project.  The Phoenix mine, operated jointly by Newmont and Barrick Gold, is expected to produce less this year due to the processing of lower-grade ore. Even so, some of the shortfall will be balanced by the restarted operations, including the Mineral Park and Johnson Camp projects. Operations at the…
