Bloomberg reports that Chile’s peso gained for the first time in five days as copper.
The market news is quoted as saying:
Copper for March delivery reached $4.3195 a pound, passing the previous peak for a most-active contract reached yesterday. Chile is the world’s biggest exporter of the metal, which accounts for about half of exports.
