Copper Poised for Fourth Weekly Gain on Positive US, China Signs

Copper was on track for a fourth weekly advance, with positive economic data from the world’s two biggest economies buoying its demand outlook.

The metal edged up on Friday to trade near the highest in a month, while other London Metal Exchange commodities also gained. The economic bellwether metal has traded in a relatively narrow range this month, but has been supported by a weaker dollar.
