I have been reading articles that say the price of copper is up because of striking copper mine workers, not so much because of demand. If that is true, how far back do you think copper will drop if they settle the disputes?
I would like to post a chart on 5 year copper but I'm not sure how I insert a picture here. Any way, if you go to Kitco Base Metals Site they have great past history of all the base metals. As you may know, China is a big buyer of the metals now. Many think that it's not so much the metals going up, but rather, the dollar going down.
The only way I have tried to post pictures here, and it worked, was to save the image, then host it on You must be logged in to see this link. (it's easy) Then post the image tag they give you right into the forum.
