LME Copper Falls $40 to $14,578/t; Tin Drops $1,442
The standout here is tin, whose drop dwarfs the modest moves in copper, aluminium, zinc and nickel, suggesting the selloff is concentrated rather than a broad base-metals repricing. Lead's lone gain and cobalt's flat close reinforce that this is dispersion, not a uniform risk-off session. For RWA and commodity-linked markets, the question worth watching is whether tin's underperformance reflects metal-specific factors or the start of wider weakness in industrial metals.
