METALS-Copper climbs on US shutdown deal, supply tightness
Copper prices rose on November 11, driven by a potential resolution to the U.S. government shutdown and expectations of tighter supply next year. The Shanghai Futures Exchange reported a 0.42% increase in copper prices, while the U.S. Senate passed a bill to end the shutdown, pending House approval. Reduced output from Chile's Codelco and other mines contributed to supply concerns. Other base metals also saw slight gains, with aluminium and zinc rising, while lead and nickel experienced minor declines.
