LME copper rises $244 to $14,322/ton; nickel falls $272
AI take
The breadth of the rally matters more than copper's headline gain: aluminum, zinc, lead and tin all moved higher alongside it, pointing to a broad base-metals bid rather than a single-metal story. Nickel's divergence is the notable signal, with the stainless-steel input moving against the rest of the complex and cobalt flat. Whether that split reflects metal-specific fundamentals or a wider shift in industrial demand positioning is the open question worth tracking in the sessions ahead.
