Copper Market Seen As Demand Drives Higher Prices
A Boston Financial News report quotes a leading copper producer stating demand fully consumes current output and copper moves direct from mines to buyers. Mines may average 15 cents for 1899 deliveries, with current sales at 17 to 18 cents while prior sales of 12 to 13 cents still arrive. Belief that 15 cents could sustain consumption, 20 cents might restrain it, and a panic among buyers could ease after demand is met.
