Copper prices advanced on Monday as solid exports data from top consumer China signalled a faster and more balanced economic recovery in the world’s second-biggest economy, although gains were capped by lower-than-expected imports.
Three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange had risen as much as 1.7% to $6,822.50 a tonne earlier in the session. It was up 0.6% at $6,752 a tonne by 0731 GMT.
