Copper futures trade higher on weak dollar overseas
Jan-19-2026
Copper futures are trading higher on Monday as the American currency retreating from multi-week highs against major currencies overseas after US President Donald Trump threatened eight European countries with new tariffs to gain control of Greenland. Copper prices improved further as the world’s top metal consumer China’s economy grew by an inflation-adjusted 5% in 2025 from the year before, meeting the government's target.

Copper futures for March delivery rose $0.0720 or 1.23% at $5.9030 a pound on the Comex metals division of New York Mercantile Exchange.
