On the macro front, US Treasury yields and the US dollar index continued to strengthen, supported by strong employment data and high inflation expectations. Market expectations for a Fed rate cut this year have largely subsided, with some even betting on a rate hike as early as September. This high-interest-rate environment is suppressing copper prices. On the fundamental front, domestic social inventories decreased slightly this week, and imported copper arrivals decreased, but downstream buyers remained hesitant due to high prices, resulting in weak purchasing. Supply-side disruptions were frequent. Chiles Antofagasta mine was partially shut down due to the earthquake, and supply disruptions from Peru and the Democratic Republic of Congo continued. The DRC also raised the tariff rate on strategic minerals such as lithium to 10%. In the short term, the US refined copper import tariff decision is imminent. Currently, the COMEX premium relative to LME is about 6%. If the tariff is implemented, it will accelerate copper inflows into the US and tighten overseas markets, providing support for prices. In summary, with both macro pressures and supply-side disruptions, copper prices are expected to remain volatile in the short term. Attention should be paid to tariff policies and changes in macroeconomic data. In the spot market, trading was relatively stable today. Copper prices are at low levels, prompting downstream buyers to purchase on dips. With delivery approaching and the import window closing, market supply appears to be tightening, leading to reluctance among holders to sell and further narrowing of the spot discount.

During the Asian session, in response to negative signals from the US dollar index, the USD/JPY pair plunged below 146.00. (DXY). Following Wednesday's low of 146.22, the asset's two-day downward trend has extended. The main index is reaching the bottom of Monday's knee-jerk reaction near 145.77 as it continues to decline.

 

The dollar bears are facing a severe sell-off due to the positive market sentiment. The risk-sensitive currencies have benefited from an increase in risk appetite. The US dollar index (DXY) has struck a new monthly low of 109.56 and is anticipated to stay volatile until the release of crucial US economic data.

 

The increased demand for U.S. government bonds has resulted in a decline in yields. This is due to the global markets' increased confidence. The yield on 10-year United States Treasury notes has decreased to 4%.

 

According to estimates, the Gross Domestic Product of the United States expanded by 2.4% in the third quarter. Despite the ultra-hawkish monetary policies of the Federal Reserve (Fed) and the previously disclosed 0.6% fall in growth, forecasts indicate a positive growth rate.

 

In addition, US Durable Goods Orders data will continue to be a key point. Compared to a reduction of 0.2%, it is projected that economic statistics will increase by 0.6%. Notable is the increase in core inflation, which includes oil and food prices. In spite of this, the predicted increase in demand for durable goods in the United States demonstrates healthy household demand.

 

Investors in Tokyo are anticipating the Bank of Japan's (BOJ) interest rate decision on Friday. In view of the shocks to foreign demand, BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda will continue an ultra-loose monetary policy to stimulate the outlook for economic development. In addition, Japanese policymakers are anxious that the inflation rate could go below 2%; hence, an extremely liberal policy is the best alternative.
