| Second, it is shown that a partially integrated copper producer may find rationing profitable as a means of partially achieving the effects of price discrimination given that price discrimination itself is infeasible. | |
| Accordingly, the estimation results conducted in the cointegration framework over the period 1994q1–2012q4 reveal the existence of a long-run equilibrium relationship between the real copper price and real kwacha/US$ exchange rate. | |
| By comparing the 1964–1973 period of exceptional strength in the copper price with current market conditions, a more informed judgement can be made about the longevity of the current boom in the copper price. | |
22 Aug 2018 | Additionally, we find evidence that the copper price transmission mechanism was also likely active in five other countries that year. |
21 Citations | Also, copper price shocks show greater impact on the production materials PPI than on the living materials PPI. |
10 Citations | The news impact curve of copper future price fluctuation respectively introduced funds speculation position and arbitrage position was given, and the result is consistent with the empirical study conclusion. |
25 Citations | The results identify two cycles of copper prices and price forecasts in the short term. |
| The results reveal that, financial speculation accentuated copper price moves during the last decade. | |

77 Citations | Taking price data for ten metals – six industrial (aluminium, copper, lead, nickel, tin and zinc) and four precious (gold, silver, palladium and platinum) – widely traded on the London Metal Exchange for the period 2000 to 2015, our empirical evidence indicates that large downward and upward oil price movements had spillover effects on all these metals both before and after the outbreak of the global financial crisis. |
21 Citations | Our results indicate that the impact of international copper price shocks on China's PPI is time-varying. |
| The large estimated copper resources along with evidence of slowing demand for copper over the long term considerably extend the time of “peak copper” and the long mine life of large deposits means the decline in production after will not be rapid. | |
64 Citations | Finally, it is concluded that the determined equation with 0.132 of RMSE can predict the copper price better than the classic estimation methods. |
86 Citations | Our analysis reveals that a significant proportion of future copper supply involves factors that are not immediately price-sensitive, and that a rapid unlocking of these ore bodies could have negative ramifications for economic growth, human development, and the transition to a low carbon future. |
| The application to the U. S. refined copper market provides estimates of structural supply and demand, rational price forecasts, and the risk of copper storage that is consistent with modern portfolio theory. | |
| This study, therefore, provides new insights into price determination on the LME copper market, and resolves the ambiguity of previous research regarding the efficiency of that market. |
