LME Aluminum, Copper grind higher as market brushes off inflation fears |
||
Base metals prices are an important part of the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which measures inflation. A continued rally in base metals prices could keep the CPI elevated. This morning’s US CPI data release for September pegged the month-over-month CPI change at 0.4%, and the year-over-year change at 5.4%. Both were higher than expected. (10/13/2021) |
