Fifteen months since a devastating fire destroyed more than half the building, and ten months since the start of a multi-stage reconstruction effort, skilled workers are laying a new copper roof on parts of Copenhagen 's Old Stock Exchange building.

The Aug. 1 deadline for Trump's 50% copper tariffs signals the endgame for the most profitable trade that industry veterans say they have ever seen.

President Trump wants America to produce more of the much-needed mineral, but a 50 percent tariff could undermine his aim of a manufacturing renaissance.

Freeport-McMoRan could see a $1.6-billion boost to annual profit if President Donald Trump's copper tariff materializes, a benefit driven by the firm's role as the largest U.S. producer with more expansion options than rivals.

Manufacturers and construction companies — as well as consumers — would face higher prices if the U.S. jacks up tariffs on copper, analysts said.

The metal is used in manufacturing everything from automobiles to mobile phones.

The commodity’s price is near a record high because of Trump’s trade war. It might be wise for investors to wait for a dip before easing in.
