  • Copper Price How Low Can It Go?

6
  • Copper producers just took another haymaker to
    the chin With the copper price sinking to new
    multi-year lows this week, miners like Freeport
    McMoran FCX and Southern Copper SCCO are no
    doubt feeling the pressure.

  • As you can see, the red metal recently broke to
    new 2015 lows under 2.25 a pound. The downturn
    has copper off a whopping 25 year-to-date and
    down 30 from last year at this time.

10
  • Clearly, bears are making their presence known in
    this market.
  • Why is copper crumbling?

11
  • Its quite simple really. China is the worlds
    largest consumer of the red metal, accounting for
    around 45 of global supply.

12
  • And since the countrys economy is experiencing a
    rather steep slowdown this year global copper
    demand has gone in the gutter.

13
  • Recent economic releases paint a relatively
    gloomy picture for China

14
  • Just last week the Peoples Bank of China (PBOC)
    revealed lending sank sharply in October. And
    thats despite the fact the PBOC has cut interest
    rates 6 times in the past year. But thats just
    the start of it

15
  • Chinas October PMI manufacturing reading came in
    48.3. While its a slight improvement over
    Septembers reading it still signifies the
    countrys vast manufacturing industry is
    contracting.

16
  • The culmination of months of weak economic data
    is precisely why Chinas Q3 GDP reading recently
    registered at 6.9. To be clear, economic growth
    near 7would be a fantastic windfall for Western
    economies.

17
  • But for China, its the weakest growth theyve
    seen in 25 years. Of course, we cant forget the
    impact of the US Dollar The worlds reserve
    currency is galloping higher thanks to the
    growing likelihood of a higher interest rates
    come December.

18
  • With the October jobs report coming in strong,
    its likely the Federal Reserve implements their
    first rate raise in over 10 years.

19
  • Without question, the copper market is facing
    stiff headwinds

20
  • However, theres a good chance bullish traders
    may be able to pull in some profits in the red
    metal soon. Heres how With the 2.00 technical
    support zone just a stones throw away theres a

21
  • very good chance of some abrupt short covering
    soon. As a result, quick traders can look to the
    DJ-UBS Copper Total Return JJC for a long
    opportunity.

22
  • But keep in mind, any short covering will likely
    be short-winded since the metals bearish
    fundamentals suggest it could fall to 6-year lows
    under 2 in 2016.
