A sharp drop in copper prices on exchanges raises concerns

These days, there has been a sharp wave of copper price decline on exchanges, which is raising concerns throughout the production chain. By the end of March of 2025, the price level reached 5.2 USD/Lbs, but on April 8, this indicator fell by more than 20% to 4.1 USD/Lbs. Such a sharp drop reflects market instability, which is determined by both global economic changes and specific trends in raw material supply and demand.

Copper scrap buyers who have copper scrap in their warehouses are unlikely to sell it and will try to hold on to it as much as their financial resources allow, while trying to purchase as much copper scrap as possible at a lower price.
