copper is spiking right now, anyone able to unload?

[willy13]

There now seems to be a double push thanks to little joeys weak foreign policy. We had the green energy push driving copper and nickle up. Now we have an increased projected shortages because Russia is a big mining country....

This is true, but we should do some mining ourselves - bank mining!

No pressure to anyone waiting for copper to moon into the double digits. But I am trying to buy some CTUs. PM me if looking to sell (quantity and asking price).

Whats going on with copper? Today I see it is down $1.17 to $2.39 per lb, thats like 33 pct? Copper cent now only worth 1.59 cents.

From what I have read it’s down due to global recession fears, despite 2 days earlier articles talking about copper shortages.

Data feed error or something like that. In the futures market, the price is around $3.65 per pound. Check here for example:
https://www.wsj.com/market-data/quotes/futures/HG00

WSJ and MW probably get data from the same place.

OK, just a glitch in Coinflations data feed. That makes more sense. Thanks.

I remember when copper really WAS $2.39 a pound (actually more like $2 even). This was around 8 years ago when gas was cheap and silver was only around $15-$16 per ounce. The last time copper SPIKED was early 2022

Issue is finally resolved on KITCO - $3.57/lb.

Kitco charts suck. Always lots of glitching and bad ticks.

Keep in mind that in the stock market one can take advantage of glitches in extended hours. For instance, if I saw a glitch in the price of silver, I’d look to trade the SLV exchange traded (silver) fund.

On days with little activity (like, for instance, Black Friday), I’ve seen lots of these glitches over the years. Be very careful not to have a heart attack on the day after Thanksgiving!
