The Trump trade wars has pushed down base metals, and the deflated price could be a good barometer for global growth, said Hans-Arne L’orange, director of Clarksons Platou Securities. “Dr. copper is known world-wide to give a good indication of the world’s GDP growth, and I think the drop from April is a clear indication that the trade war, the tariffs [are escalating], and people are afraid of NAFTA renewal with Canada, so I think this is fair,” L’orange told Kitco News on the sidelines of the 121 Mining Investment conference in New York.
