🔴 BHP Group is trading 3.17% down today as copper prices fall to five-week lows

BHP Group is trading 3.17% lower at $78.25 as copper prices fall to five-week lows, weighing on mining shares.

• The decline coincides with the company’s October 22 annual meeting, but reporting points to metals weakness—not a new company-specific announcement—as the main immediate driver.
• BHP recently reported a steep quarterly copper-production decline, though available evidence does not establish it as the direct cause of this session’s move.
