    Will Copper Go Higher?

    Posted on July 22, 2012 by

    Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold CEO Richard Adkerson told CNBC’s “Closing Bell” he expects copper prices to be higher longer term.

    Although the Chinese economy is slowing, the Freeport-McMoran (FCX) CEO said it hasn’t had as big an impact on copper (CEC:Commodities Exchange Centre: HGCV1) demand as it has had on other commodities.

    “There’s continued spending on infrastructure,” he said, adding the markets are reacting to signs that the Chinese government will take actions to support growth.

    With inflation under control, Adkerson is “optimistic about China.”

    Copper demand in the U.S. is also running stronger than the overall economy because of a pick up in the automotive sector and the beginnings of a rebound in housing, Adkerson said.

    Although Freeport-McMoran doesn’t make predictions about copper prices, Adkerson said that he’s very optimistic about the price of the red metal longer term.

    Adkerson isn’t alone in expecting higher copper prices. Ephrem Ravi, Head of Metals & Mining Sector at Barclays, told CNBC Asia on Tuesday that copper is the commodity that both he and markets are most bullish on. (Related: Copper Will Stay Above $8,000 This Year).

    A main reason for copper’s strength is structural. “Copper as a commodity is supported by limited supplies,” Adkerson said.

    Freeport-McMoran is in a position to take advantage of the limited supplies because it has very large reserves at its existing mines, Adkerson said. “So by investing in brownfield projects we can step up and provide supplies when the industry as a whole is challenged.”

    “We can provide volumes and make a lot of money if prices go higher which I anticipate they will,” he continued.

    Anglo-Australian miner BHP Billiton is also poised to benefit from higher copper prices. “The bright spot for us was the copper production at Escondida, which has been the big disappointment for BHP Billiton’s (BHP) production numbers over the last three or four years,” Ravi said of BHP’s production update last week. Escondida is BHP’s Chilean copper mine.

    With copper prices likely to head higher, Barclay’s Ravi said “If BHP can produce more of it than all the better.”

    Copper Futures Retreat in New York as Moody’s May Cut Spain’s Debt Rating

    Posted on December 15, 2010 by

    Copper prices fell the most in three weeks in New York as a potential downgrade of Spain’s credit rating revived concern that Europe’s debt crisis will worsen, hampering the global economic rebound.56021-1

    Moody’s Investors Services said Spain’s rating may be cut from Aa1, amid growing concern it could follow Greece and Ireland in seeking a bailout. Prices also fell on speculation that China, the world’s largest metals consumer, may have to raise interest rates to cool inflation.

    Europe is “one step away from the next crisis,” Edward Meir, a senior commodity analyst at MF Global Holdings Ltd. in Darien, Connecticut, said in a report. “We are in store for a rather sharp correction over the next several weeks as investors have not yet fully discounted the implications of rising interest rates.”

    Copper futures for March delivery fell 7.65 cents, or 1.8 percent, to close at $4.1325 a pound at 1:27 p.m. on the Comex in New York, the biggest loss for a most-active contract since Nov. 22.

    Yesterday, the price reached $4.229, the highest since May 2008, when the commodity jumped to a record $4.2605.

    Stockpiles monitored by the London Metal Exchange have gained 2.7 percent in the past three days to the highest level since Nov. 23, exchange figures showed.

    In London, copper for delivery in three months dropped $70, or 0.8 percent, to $9,095 a metric ton ($4.13 a pound) on the LME. Yesterday, the price rose to a record $9,267.50.

    Tin, lead, aluminum and zinc also fell in London. Nickel gained.
