Copper prices skyrocketed to all-time highs this morning (29th), Hong Kong time, with the three-month benchmark copper futures on the London Metal Exchange (LME) growing to USD13,965/ ton, marking an approximate 12% year-to-date increment. Other major base metal prices also saw increases, with aluminum prices hitting a three-year high.

Commodity prices have been advancing so far this year due to a depreciating US dollar, rising demand for physical assets, and escalating geopolitical tensions stemming from the Trump administration's more assertive foreign policy.
