Copper prices have reached record highs above $6.60 per pound, driven by supply disruptions and increased demand from AI-related infrastructure. The CPER ETF, which tracks copper futures, surged to $40.46, marking a 15.7% increase this year. The price of copper has risen approximately 75% since October 2023, with significant contributions from declining inventories in China and supply issues at major mines. China's exports also rose 14% in April, further tightening the copper market.
