Alright, so I wanted to figure out what the deal is with copper prices per pound in California this year, 2024. It’s a bit of a wild ride, honestly.
First, I started digging around to get a basic understanding. I found out that copper prices have actually gone up a bit since the start of 2025. I saw something like a 0.34 USd/LB increase, which is about an 8.55% jump. That’s something, right?
- Then, I checked out the current price. It seems like copper is hanging around 4.3510 dollars per pound.
- The price today was swinging between 4.3180 and 4.3630 dollars.
- Yesterday? It closed at 4.3425, so a tiny bump of 0.0085. Not much, but it’s there.
I also stumbled upon some forecasts for this year and even into 2025. People are saying it’s a complex global picture for copper in 2024. Makes sense, the world’s a crazy place.
I tried to find the most up-to-date info I could. One source said the price as of January 14, 2025, was 4.3460 dollars. They had this whole page dedicated to copper futures, which was kind of interesting.
There’s this whole chart thing that tracks copper prices back to like, 1971. I didn’t go that far back, but it’s cool that it’s there. They also had the price for January 14, 2025, listed.
I even found some stuff in Spanish, talking about real-time updates and trends for copper prices. I don’t speak Spanish, but I got the gist – it’s a big deal.
Wrapping Up
It looks like copper had a pretty volatile 2024, and 2025 is shaping up to be interesting too. This whole price tracking thing is more complicated than I thought, but it’s kind of fascinating how much goes into it. I guess that’s all for now, I will keep tracking this and see where it is going. Hopefully, it will not go up too much, right?
