Erm eviking..you've not had any falling out with any gypsie fortune tellers like joker have you? ;-)))..Commodities are the ones to be in and Gregg's ;-) the nation will need feeding as it goes back to work:-)))

Troajan have you seen the price of copper? :-)))

:-)))

I'm predicting £3.10 for next week

Troajan let's see what happens over next couple of weeks

Supplies of copper scrap will jump this year due to decade high prices but are unlikely to come fast enough to meet robust demand, leaving shortages that are expected to trigger stock draws and further price gains.

Copper prices around $9,400 a tonne are close to $9,617 hit in February, the highest since August 2011 and more than double the levels seen in March last year, when manufacturing activity crashed due to covid lockdowns.....https://www.mining.com/web/record-copper-scrap-flows-this-year-wont-plug-deficit/

Glasenberg, who owns 9 per cent of Glencore, said further shareholder payouts could come later in the year. He also said economic conditions could be right for another mining supercycle, like the 2000s, when Chinese demand was well ahead of what the world’s iron ore and copper mines could provide

Troajan glencore should be well above £3 ..is it going to twang up in a 30point burst up ? Like the good old Days?

The UK economy has boomed since large swathes of the country were allowed to reopen, according to new data.

IHS Markit's closely watched purchasing managers' index (PMI) showed activity is rebounding rapidly across the economy. Private sector activity grew at the fastest rate since 2013 in April, IHS Markit said, with all part of the economy growing rapidly.

"Companies are reporting a surge in demand for both goods and services as the economy opens up from lockdowns and the encouraging vaccine roll-out adds to a brighter outlook," said Chris Williamson, chief business economist at IHS Markit.

"In more than 23 years of PMI history, we have only seen one spell of faster growth than this, recorded between August and November 2013."

The latest PMI survey, published on Friday, delivered a preliminary reading of 60 for April. PMIs are given on a scale of 0 to 100, with anything above 50 signalling growth and anything below meaning contraction.

The data underscores the rosy picture of the economy that has emerged since large parts of the country were allowed to reopen earlier this month. Non-essential retail, outdoor dining and bars, and leisure facilities such as gyms were allowed to reopen across England from 12 April. Restrictions have similarly been eased across Wales.
