Copper miners ETF COPX rises 23.39% amid US tariff-driven copper scarcity, but global surplus limits near-term gains.

The Global X Copper Miners ETF (COPX) surged 23.39% in the past month due to tariff-driven copper scarcity in the U.S., pushing copper prices near record highs. Despite this strong recent performance and improved earnings for miners, a projected global copper surplus tempers optimism for further short-term gains. COPX's high valuation and volatility make it less attractive for new investors currently. The key upcoming event is Washington's tariff decision, which could trigger a buy upgrade if COPX rises above $99.99 after the announcement.
