BUZZ-Copper miners gain as red metal prices hit record high
Copper prices hit a record high, driven by Citi's increased price outlook and a weak U.S. dollar. This led to a rise in U.S.-listed shares of copper miners, with Southern Copper up 1.3%, Freeport-McMoRan up 1.2%, Hudbay Minerals up 1.2%, and Teck Resources gaining 3.4%. Benchmark copper on the LME rose 1.4% to $11,609.50 a ton, with a weekly gain of 3.8% and over 30% increase in 2025.
