Copper futures ended higher on Friday after data showing that US initial weekly jobless claims last week stood at 860,000, which was lower than the previous week and the data were below one million for three consecutive weeks. Further, economic recovery in the world’s top metal consumer China too added support to copper prices.

Copper futures for December delivery gained $0.0450 to settle at $3.1160 a pound on the Comex metals division of New York Mercantile Exchange. Copper on the London Metal Exchange was up 0.47% at $6,812.50 a ton.
