In a May 16, 2025, Barchart article on copper, I concluded:
We witnessed another in a long series of golden buying opportunities when copper prices fell to the April 7 low and held above their critical technical support level. Technical and fundamental factors favor higher copper prices, but even the most aggressive bull market trends rarely move in straight lines, and copper is no exception. Expect lots of volatility in the copper futures, forwards, and the CPER ETF. High price variance creates many trading opportunities.
