Show The National Enterprise, May 4, 1977 Commodity Options According to the experts, 80 cents a pound copper is just around the corner. Every three years the union contract conies up for negotiations. And every three years theres the inevitable strike, followed by prices in copper increasing. This is the year for negotiation and it looks like nothing is going to change. June 30, is likely to be the strike date. The effect of a strike would be the reduction of stocks, long a wet blanket on market prices. A market depressed from over supply in spite of bullish news will be given a chance to show its strength. The facts are that housing starts are increasing, there is an actual smaller surplus now being forecast for 1977, refined consumtpion is forecast to increase by nearly 5.5 percent to 6.8 million tons in the western world, a further deterioration in confidence over a war in Central Africas Zaire, and a significant rise in the rate of inflation. The security of copper supplies has always been the most important influence on prices. At present, they seem to be threatened.
