Copper, Nickel hit multi year lows

Copper prices fell below $4,500 a tonne on the LME for the 1st time since May 2009, hit by rising inventories in China and the continuous strength of the US dollar.
Prices have fallen 32% YTD, and 55% from the peak of 10,000 in 2011.

 

Nickel slid as much as 5.7% to $8,235 a ton on the LME, the weakest level since 2003.
