THE COPPER OUTLOOK.

Consumers of copper are now
pretty we'll astisfied that natural con-
Gitions alone have been responsible
for l7A copper. The advance i'm
the Price has been due primarily to
the fact that none of the consumers
expected the metal ito go higher than
II or Is cents and when the market
reached that figure they withdrew
and after Watching it for time, and
being absolutely in need of copper ITO
meet their requirements, tried to bu!
at tie then prevailing prices with
out much success.
The refiners and producers, being
sold UP to the end of September, ARE
unable to supply the spot demand
which, while not great, has been
enough considering the small supply
to cause further advances.
Everyone has been predicting
that on account of the high prices
of the metal the consumption will
fall Off Past experience indicates
that four and six months, or a year,
of high metal prices does not affect
consumption any more than few
months of extremely low prices stim-
ulateS consumption. In order for
consumption to be affected by high
prices, Oh stimulated by low prices,
they must nreVail for AFT least two
years
1T dis a perfectly safe calculation
that so far as the next few years are
concerned, i'm view of the business
outlook, copper prices irrespective
of the final adjustment will rule ON
q higher level, and -conusmers are
coming to a realization of this posi-
tion.
