Copper Falls as LME Trade Halt Caps Turbulent Week for Metals - BLOOMBERG
(Bloomberg) -- Copper sank from a record toward the end of an extraordinary week for metals marked by frenzied trading, huge gains and — in a late twist — a one-hour delay to the opening of the London Metal Exchange.
The world’s biggest metals bourse opened belatedly at 10:00 a.m Hong Kong time on Friday after standard pre-trading checks identified a potential technical issue, and the exchange ordered a precautionary delay. That made for a nervy start to business as market participants in Asia speculated over who might be sitting on losses after huge price moves on Thursday.
