    Commodities Market Live Today: Copper likely to gain more on China’s output cut, rising demand

    Copper prices will likely gain further in 2024 on fears of production cuts in China and increasing demand, particularly for green energy transition, after having gained about 10 per cent since the beginning of 2024. They are currently ruling at highs not seen since June 2022. 

    The red metal prices have averaged $8,558/tonne year-to-date as of April 2 2024. Prices have been on a steady upward trend since the start of the year, surging to $9,089/tonne on March 18 on the back of possible production cuts in China, said research agency BMI, a unit of Fitch Solutions.

    Editorial. BJP manifesto retains development-welfare policy mix

    The BJP manifesto, bearing the unmistakeable imprimatur of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has an undertone of quiet confidence running through it. It focuses more on economy and governance issues than ideologically contentious ones, which is very welcome. The assurance is of ‘hitting the road up and running’ on winning a third term. The manifesto does not unveil extravagant plans that could compromise the fisc, perhaps because it feels they are not electorally necessary.
