Abstract

Mastery of the pricing mechanism of global copper will raise the voice of copper resources. During the period from 1960 to 2002, the copper price experienced several rises and falls but within a small range. Since 2003, the copper price soared and only declined during the financial crisis. The paper has analyzed the pricing mechanism of the copper from its industrial property and financial property. The global economic trend, supply-demand relationship and cost are fundamental factors affecting the copper price in the long run. But speculation, the dollar index and inflation expectations will intensify the change of copper price in the short run.
