ICOP is trading at $54.19, up +3.12%, as stronger metals prices support metals-and-mining shares.
- London copper rose 1.16% on supply disruptions and Chinese buying; other LME base metals also advanced.
- Precious metals strengthened and miners gained in Europe, consistent with ICOPβs concentrated metals-and-mining exposure. Easing oil prices after the U.S. ruled out attacking Iran before the midterm elections may also be improving risk sentiment.
