In news, the Federal Reserve is expected to cut rates by 25 basis points at its December 2024 meeting. CITIC SEC predicts that the Federal Reserve will likely pause interest rate cuts at the next meeting to observe developments. A clearer guidance may not come until the March meeting. Baicheng Futures pointed out that the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance on rate cuts in 2025 has lifted the USD from 107 to around 108, putting pressure on copper prices.

Guangfa Futures noted that in the context of fully anticipated copper supply conditions, the macro perspective on demand expectations remains a core factor anchoring copper prices. The uncertainty of the macro environment in 2025 is expected to intensify disturbances to copper prices, with core focus on the overseas rate cut process, the progress of Trump's tariff policies, China’s incremental policy scale, and the actual effects after the policy implementation period.
