Copper lurched higher today and like the stock market, eased its enthusiasm a bit into the close. Click for a better view. I think you can sort of tell the…
The tweet says it all. A problem with the president's logic is that crude oil is part of the cyclical, risk 'on' macro amalgam. The Saudis did not decide to…
