Copper Gains in Overnight Session; Aluminum, Zinc Slip in Shanghai
AI take
The split between copper's overnight gain and softer Shanghai aluminum and zinc suggests the complex is trading on metal-specific factors rather than one broad macro impulse. Copper's move stands out because it is the only base metal to rise in both venues, a sign that its bid is more persistent than the rest of the board. Whether that copper premium holds or fades as the other Shanghai contracts find their footing is the open question.
