Copper kicked off 2026 strong on the opening trading day, buoyed by expectations of market tightness ahead. The metal just wrapped up its most impressive year since 2009, riding a wave of optimism around supply constraints and industrial demand. The momentum carries into the new year as traders remain bullish on the outlook. This kind of rally in traditional commodities often signals broader risk appetite across markets, including digital assets, making it worth watching for anyone tracking macro trends.
