Hey folks, if you’ve been watching the copper space closely, you know Freeport (FCX) has been on a tear. Yesterday, FCX jumped about 16%, and it’s up over 7% today.
This isn’t just a flash in the pan — it’s a sign that the copper market recovery is gaining traction.
Market Readiness
I’ve been tracking this move and I can tell you the shift in sentiment is real. With earnings expected on April 24, the timing couldn’t be better. Traders are starting to see that this isn’t just speculative hype.
Copper has been under some serious pressure for a while now, but rising demand and tighter supply are setting the stage for a turnaround.
As I always say, don’t go all in on one play — especially when options are wide and the numbers can change in a flash. Whether you’re trading options or holding the stock, the key is to stay nimble and stick to what fits your risk tolerance.
It’s exciting to see this kind of recovery, but market moves like these can reverse just as quickly.
For those of us in the trading community, it’s another reminder to keep our eyes peeled. There’s always a bit of noise amid the good news, but when fundamentals line up, opportunities like this can really pay off.
I’ve been in this game long enough to know that a measured approach is what often wins in the long run.
As we watch FCX continue to run, it reinforces my belief that now might be a great time to take a closer look at copper plays. Keep checking your charts and listening to the market signals — when the conditions are right, our best trades come from being ready and staying informed.
