London copper prices dip after US jobs data
Business World Philippines
|December 18, 2025
Copper prices retreated on Tuesday as investors assessed the latest US jobs data while thin year-end liquidity exacerbates price swings.
-
Benchmark three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange (LME) lost 0.3% to $11,624.50 a metric ton by 1720 GMT. It hit a record of $11,952 on Friday on concern over tight supply.
The US data showed the November unemployment at more than a four-year high, though the recent government shutdown created some uncertainty over what this report means for the economy and the US Federal Reserve's policy outlook.
