Generated 08:00 ET
Copper’s bullish case is now framed less around near-term restocking and momentum and more around a longer-lived demand impulse from AI-driven infrastructure investment. The view is that this could underpin a broader industrial-metals supercycle, though the recent focus on Chinese seasonal demand, speculative positioning and fresh highs has dropped away.
