on 9 February 2016 against Rs 315.10/kg on 8 February 2016. Copper fallen as local
selling chipped in the trades that are marred by the lack of China in the
markets. Chinese traders are absent from the markets on account of Lunar New
Year that has sucked the unpredictability from the global and domestic
exchanges in India. As rock bottom commodities rates and overcapacity decline
balance sheets at stressed commodities firms, trade insurers fear further stress
from payment setback and defaults in China and India, particularly in metals.

on Tuesday as shareholders and investors resorted to profit booking in the bullion
metal, at existing ranges, after a stellar rally in the last session when rates

sessions as dipping worldwide equities and a worsening oil tumult boosted the asset

offset the increases witnessed in the bullion metal in the overseas market.

bullion rates.
