Copper pricesThis year some copper mines will have to choose, downsize, care and maintenance, or bust as the $2.00 U.S. Copper price is not high enough. Most proposed mines will be on hold due to hard financing. Cash rich companies and gold companies will be looking at undervalued copper companies. Electricity needs copper whether it's coal and gas, wind or sun power. Massive upgrade needed if more electric cars come on the market.
Got all this stuff from crystal ball and the year of the monkey calendar.
