Market Pulse Scope's North American cobalt metal marker fell 9.0% over seven sessions to $35,705 a tonne on Oct 19, as hopes of a further tightening in Congolese export quotas went unmet and Chinese electrolytic cobalt, cobalt sulphate and cobalt chloride all posted weekly losses.
Three-month copper closed at $14,550 a tonne, up 1.79% on the day and about 2% on the week, as strikes at Antofagasta and Centinela threatened Chilean output while LME-registered copper stocks fell to a six-week low.
Copper closed the week 2% higher on the London Metal Exchange at $14,540 a tonne, supported by a six-week low in LME-registered stocks, a four-year high in a gauge of Chinese import demand and a widening strike at Antofagasta's Centinela mine in Chile.
A new Production-at-Risk Index from GEM Mining Consulting puts an average 5.2% of output at Chile's 14 largest copper mines at risk, with El Teniente at 9%, Los Pelambres at 8% and Escondida at 7.5%. The assessment lands as more than 700 workers strike at Antofagasta's Centinela and Chilean production runs 9.3% below 2025 levels through July.
Base metals whipsawed in the first week of October: a dollar squeeze pushed aluminium to a twelve-week low on 1 October, then softer US payroll data sent the whole complex higher on 5 October with three-month copper closing at 14,401 dollars a tonne and Escondida strike risk adding a supply premium.
Three-month LME copper closed at $14,258.50 a tonne, within 4% of the September record, as Comex warehouses hold 69% of exchange-tracked stocks, half of LME inventories are earmarked for delivery and BHP's Escondida contract talks stay unresolved.
