Five Star Equities Provides Stock Research on Southern Copper and Lundin Mining
NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 04/16/12 -- Copper futures recorded the biggest weekly loss since mid-December last Friday. Prices fell on increasing concerns that slowing economic growth in China, the world's top consumer, may significantly drop demand. Five Star Equities examines the outlook for companies in the Copper Industry and provides equity research on
Southern Copper Corp. (NYSE: SCCO) and
Lundin Mining Corporation (PINKSHEETS: LUNMF) (TSX: LUN).

The most-actively traded contract, for May delivery, fell 9.35 cents, or 2.5%, to settle at $3.6270 a pound on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. This was the lowest settlement price since Jan. 13. China reported the lowest growth rate in three years of 8.1% in the first quarter from the same period of last year. "Base metals are very closely tied to Chinese growth and, with growth coming in slower than expected, that's obviously relaying concerns regarding copper demand in the months ahead," said Dave Meger, director of metals trading at Vision Financial Markets.
