International copper prices continue to rise following the National Day holiday.

Following the Golden Week holiday, global copper prices continued their solid upward trajectory. London Metal Exchange (LME) copper futures surged as post-holiday replenishment demand in domestic markets combined with global raw material supply tightness to bolster spot prices. Meanwhile, persistent expectations of global interest rate cuts have further sustained bullish sentiment across non-ferrous metals. Market analysts broadly expect copper prices and downstream product costs to remain elevated in the short term.
