Global trade worries pull Copper off two-month high

COMEX Copper back after a sharp rally earlier this week as global trade worries continued to weigh on the metal. Copper came off a two-month high after the US announced a new round of tariff measures, including 100 percent duties on imported branded drugs, 25 percent tariffs on heavy-duty trucks and 50 percent tariffs on kitchen cabinets. All new duties will take effect on October 1. The red metal is currently trading at $4.73 per pound, down 0.42% on the day but is up around 2.40% for the week. It is also up around 3.20% in September so far.
