How have copper prices held up as well as they have?

[Derek.Sheriff]

Gregory Dorsey points out, "The very fact that copper prices have held up as well as they have in recent years, when the US and Europe (which represent roughly half of the global economy) have been largely stagnant, is a bullish argument for anyone with a time horizon that stretches beyond just the next few weeks.

Keep in mind that while China is the dominant force in the copper market, it is not acting alone."
