Copper leaps anybody? Looking at CPER or COPX.
There is a broad-based commodities rally starting, it's not just gold & silver. I'm heavy into GDXU (3x gold miners) & AGQ (2x silver) LETFs right now. Last week, I delevered 1/2 & entered SLVP, SIL & SILJ, they're unleveraged silver miners that haven't really benefited from silver's huge price rise yet & still grossly under-valued. I'm keeping an eye on GDX (1x gold miners), COPX (copper miners) & PPLT (platinum) for further de-risking divestment from my LETFs. Don't like oil services just yet despite MSM pushing it, the charts don't look that good to me.
I have BWXT and CCJ with you - plus URNM, COPX and PLMN These are key to AI. If AI hits a speed bump, so will these.
AMZN, COPX, ONDS…more but depends what market looks like Tuesday
I have never been a commodity buyer but right now I hold Gold, Silver, and Copper based on the current environment and future data center forecast. COPX is my copper choice.
And not only that, once central banks have converted more of their treasuries into gold, they will want to keep the price of gold nice and high, so they will do the needful in that regard out of pure self interest. The only thing that could tank gold, I think, is a sudden disinterest among foreign central banks in storing wealth or a returned preference for US treasuries. But I don’t see that happening for a lot of reasons. You’re also going to find a lot of wealthy gold miners and a rapid improvement in mining technology. I am getting long GDXJ, despite the fact that it has more than doubled in the last year. COPX is also good and is set to rally even further in connection with what I think is increased industrial demand and a looming shortage.
can i ask why you'd choose fcx over COPX or SCCO? My understanding is FCX only advantage is it's US based but if tariffs are lifted they lose quite a bit of leverage for non-US copper securities
Looking for an entry on COPX…been green all week tho
Literally copper is sold out everywhere online for its very expensive today. Time to hammer COPX? Any suggestions?
COPX had a massive run last year. Nobody said shit here except for a few who put it on my radar last week.
Well COPX (Copper ETF) just broke it's 52-week high a few mins ago, so yall might want to look into copper too.
That’s it. I’m only longing SLV and COPX. I’m done fucking with the MAG7, SPY and QQQ.
Everyone talking about Silver while copper is the real bull metal of 2026. COPX
My guy I’m loaded to the tits on COPX.
Bought a leap the other day. I would settle for another 100% year on COPX
I’m ghey right now for the person who mentioned COPX
Imperial and Amarc(not a miner though). I have COPX too.
holding SLV, GLD, PLTM, COPX, CRML, DNN, TMC 2026 so far could not get any easier.
Any opinions on Coper ETFs? Looking at COPX vs ICOP
I really like the copper mining etf COPX, the chart looks incredible and it pays a nice dividend. (although it could be argued that it is overbought and may retrace a bit)
CPER Leveraged 3HCL Miners COPX But copper is linked to the economy and a gold rush is announcing a recession, so thread lightly
Copper just broke a 30 years old resistance COPX and CPER leaps https://x.com/i/status/2008332412128997834
mfs agonizing over intra-day movements, im over here chillin wit SLV, GLD, COPX, and PLTM
Look into COPX for a copper play. Price might pull back early this year but long term outlooks for data centres and green infrastructure and EVs are good.
Thanks. I wish it had LEAPS, because I'd rather go longer, but 167DTE meets my self-imposed rule of >100 days. And I always do 80-delta or higher. And thanks for bringing copper to my attention again, but early this year I swore off of individual stocks (again) in favor of ETFs. **COPX**, the copper miners, holds PDS, and to my eye beats PDS on the 3-year, 1y, and 6-month views. Though PDS edges it out a bit on the 3m and 1m views. Plus the ETF has 1y LEAPS. And ETFs are mostly immune from single-issue risk, like an accounting scandal or (heaven forbid) a mine disaster and subsequent lawsuits. Take care.
Just bought 1x ATM COPX LEAP and some DGXX shares
COPX, PICK would get you there for industrial metals thesis
I like copper and to a lesser degree aluminum. Namely: FCX, COPX, AA, PICK (for broader industrial metal exposure) I have taken some tech/AI gains into a physicality trade for 2026 and am hedging more broadly with 10% gold allocation. Never selling my Google.
Well PALL paladium just gave up all its gains, SLV and GLD ahead of COPX... AA Aluminum last to get the virus. Shorting in the morning
COPX is my pick. Copper isn’t just used for semis. It’s heavily used in construction, infrastructure, and mechanical equipment. Silver and Gold has had its lead up. Copper will continue its own. COPX follows the stocks of Copper miners. Supply is low and most people are exploring new mines, this diversifies you into many miners, while still following the price of copper. As copper prices go up the miners profits go up, hand in hand. Expensive fee, but it’s been a good run for me and I don’t think it’s stopping.
Idk that ticker but I’ve been trading GLD PPLT PALL and COPX the last 2 weeks and they’ve made me stupid money on calls
Thank you What do you think about the ETF's ? COPX COPJ ? Also looking at these two . SCCO , FXC. Copper looks like it's run up about the same as Silver and Gold . Is it worth waiting for a correction?
First year I’ve made 6 figures health >>> wealth Thank you to the following: ONDS, SLV, GLD, COPX, GOOG, LMT, RTX, EUAD, VYMI, RKLB
COPX option chain was lighting up Wednesday.
I’ll look into it. I have a position in COPX. I love copper.
Copper bullish bets are on fire, Copper just surpassed record breaking $12,000 a ton! COPX
Bro with COPX again my god
COPX is the way with all that hyper electrification… it’s gonna be a monster gain
PALL, PPLT, GLD, COPX and SLV calls, these puppies have made me good money recently..
Copper demand is outrageously insane, COPX is gonna double by end of 2026
Copper is the hottest play right now COPX!!!
PSIX, COPX, RIO, TGB, BCD, GLD. All about the grid! (And stagflation)
Not a commodity expert but there are ETFs for them. GLD, SLV, COPX, USO, UNG, etc.
There are lots of other copper miners or just buy an ETF like COPX or COPJ. Talking about the one that got away doesn’t get you very far.
This is my copy pasta as it was asked the other day somewhere. Gold starts... Copper confirms... Lithium bridges... Oil follows. Silver hit a high 11/13(?, damn close if not right) so the question is this a breakout or a fake out? Where I am from we treat stocks as global assets. So we have to zoom out a bit to delve deeper. China is ripping this year. Europe leads the pack. Latin America is also breaking out fresh multi-year highs. Meanwhile the U.S. has been the laggard. I remember 2011 well. Silver mania was wild. Once the bubble burst, silver collapsed 68%. The Silver Miners ETF (SIL) dropped more than 80%. Now here we are, back at the same level. It only took 14 1/2 years. Any chart you look at is price in U.S. dollars. That’s the American view. If you really want to gauge if this break out is real, you have to look how silver is doing around the globe. And in Euro, Silver has already taken out the 2011 highs. It's at its highest level ever. You're seeing the same thing across the board: Silver is making new all-time highs in British Pounds, Japanese Yen, Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, even Chinese Yuan. If Silver is already breaking out in every other major currency, it's hard to argue it won't eventually do the same in U.S. Dollars. That’s how I see it. ( I recently closed a Silver LEAP from 2024 for a 500% gain.) That’s the playbook we used with gold. Before gold broke out in USD, it was already hitting all time highs in other countries. That was the tell. I will dovetail from where I started. Gold miners, uranium, steel, copper, lithium... they're not just outperforming. The VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX) is up 140%. The Global X Uranium ETF (URA) is up nearly 84%. The SPDR S&P Metals and Mining ETF (XME), the Global X Copper Miners ETF (COPX), and the VanEck Steel ETF (SLX) are all up between 74% and 78%. While the S&P 500 sits at plus 17%, commodities are screaming that the global market structure has already changed. Now look at the Energy Select SPDR Fund (XLE). Two years of consolidation, volatility compressed... sellers exhausted... resistance tested over and over. Every major energy move in history started this way: a fading dollar; commodity leadership; improving risk appetite; and a sector that spends years preparing for the next leg higher. XLE hasn't broken out yet. But everything around it already has. It’s the last domino. Breakout or not, the message is clear: This cycle is shifting toward real assets, hard assets, and energy. Now you know what I know.

Anyone playing copper/$COPX?
IWM, BLDR, USAR, ETHE, COPX, PALL, SILJ, and U (so far)
Sold my COPX at breakeven. Figured between the AI slowdown and war ending this is trending bearish. Sold my XOM LEAPs too
Copper (COPX): Morgan Stanley predicts the largest copper deficit will occur next year due to recent supply chain and mining disruptions happening amid increased demand. The only way this goes bad is if the global recession really hits us and if Trump doesn't make progress with Xi in their talks. If only one or the other goes through, demand would be maintained with such tight supply
Biggest to smaller (only those over ten kas have lots of "smaller" stocks too) NVDA, USD, COPX, BYD, BRKB, Recent stocks of interest I bought some of are NUKZ and URA (I think they're called). Basically etfs that buy into nuclear fusion, which I think is gonna be massive due to data centres. I'm also very pleased with my copx etc, it's done so well this year. It seems blindingly obvious to me that copper is gonna be needed to keep all this electrical infrastructure going.
Well COPX dumped today and copper is sensitive to recession fears. If demand weakens, supply shortages don't mean much. However, Rick said that in the 5 year horizon the underinvestment in copper mining will catch up and supply shortages will have a serious impact on prices even if demand is soft.
I was freaking out about COPX today. Hearing Rick Rule talking about how it would eventually play out calmed me down
Anyone betting on $COPX / copper?
Speculative, unprofitable names a la 2022 after 2020/21. SOUN, OKLO, etc. There's so many things that lost 40-50% quickly earlier this year (PLTR lost about 40% in 2 months, VST lost just shy of 50% in about 3 mo.) This sub went from scolding people if they weren't bullish late last year to scolding people if they were talking about buying a share of anything at the April bottom and we're almost all the way back to scolding people if they're not bullish. The market post covid has turned into escalator up (certain sectors go up seemingly every day; there's little concern for valuation aside from "price-to-narrative", so where as stocks would previously 5 steps forward, 2 steps back they just turn into a FOMO fest pile-on.) Eventually a lot of people get complacent/110% risk-on and all the sudden you get the elevator down (price-to-earnings suddenly matters again, everyone 110% risk-on can't dial-up so they de-risk.) Also, for all the talk about AI, people not talking about things like Gold Miners (GDX up 123% YTD), Copper Miners (COPX +66% YTD) and critical minerals in general (SETM +75% ytd.) While the AI trade goes on, there's a real assets trade clearly at work that has done better than the Mag 7 (MAGS +20% ytd) and tech (VGT +23% YTD.) Lastly, the fact that Cathie is actually having a good year with ARKK up 65% should be concerning, as is the fact that that fund is up 65% YTD and is still negative over the last 5 years.
OPEN and RIGETTI blowing up setting the stage for MDAI QD and INNODATA to set the tone for the market big home run with COPX to compliment the demand as an increase in utility. Next move on to production stocks and manufacturers with the mindset on material costs and expenses like gas oil (i.e energy) for sure wish I bought more INNO. With a spike today going to 82! Calling out MDAI 👀. Let’s goo !! QD 🍑god like platform structure..don’t sleep on that pharma market 🤫 😴 💊 Follow for more mentions on the market
I've been trying to talk about GDX (well technically EPGIX) since February, but the moderators often delete my posts. GDX up 104% YTD. GDXJ up 105% YTD. SIL up 100% YTD. COPX up 39% YTD. This has to be institutional investors recognizing a significant undervaluation and current prices. We should be riding this to the top.
COPP, CPER, FCX, NEM, TGB, HL, SCCO, COPX, ERO, RIO lol
COPX ripping if you want to get in on copper
ASTS, NBIS, CPER/COPX, GOOGL, KTEC. 1) Big in ASTS. Internet everywhere is the next logical step. Very impressive tech. 2) NBIS because specialized servers need to be built. Like the NVIDIA partnership. Good leadership. Tokola, Avride, clickhouse are added benefits. 3) Copper as an inflation hedge as gold, silver and btc so expensive. 4) Google cause it’s cheap and has cash. 5) Chinese tech etf cause why not. Liking all ADRs what with the declining USD. More mag 7 (Meta, Amazon, Microsoft) I plan to buy if the market sees large dips.
I was too lazy to buy a specific company, bought COPX instead
XBI, COPX, SILJ etfs will outperform SPY for the next year
But I see COPX also had the same swing as the market after tariffs were declared.
Don't wait for perfect clarity, it won't come. The best investments work with the political reality, not against it. Watch copper prices (COPX ETF) - they’ll signal whether global trade is truly healing or just relocating. Copper doesn't care about headlines, it only reacts to actual industrial activity. The smart money watches this, not tariff tweets.

Considering the move to EVs and also nuclear power, do we like COPX or NLR ETFs?
No idea about the other questions, but... > $TMQ. It's performing very well right now, though I have no idea why It boomed day the day after Trump's election because the Biden administration had blocked construction of an Alaskan road Trilogy wanted. https://www.mining.com/biden-administration-blocks-ambler-road-in-alaska/ Stick with XME or COPX if you want mining but not the risk of individual companies.
SLV, COPX, FXI calls this week
SMH, ITB, VGT, XLK, COPX, IXN There's a lot
Why not just go with safer options like COPX or a bigger miner like FCX?
COPX is my prefered copper ETF.
I own **COPX** selective copper mines. Last 3 years I have a +11% cumulative gain. If you find better Coppe stocks pls advise.
CPER is a good spot tracker which is somewhat unusual for commodities. COPX you can look up their holdings https://etfdb.com/etf/COPX/#holdings
I've been making good money on the COPX copper miner ETF, just as ea nasir before me.
If you want copper for the long haul an ETF is a good choice. You can always add some extra shares of a specific company if you want to go heavier on one or more. I've had COPX in the past but only as a short term thing. I'd break out in hives if 1/3 of my portfolio was in copper for the long run.
Only COPX shares for copper right now. I did however buy UEC 7C on Monday and im getting cooked. Good thing they don't expire until August because I full ported my fun account. 
COPX come back baby I need you, I miss you, I want you. 
Copper and uranium are the future. COPX and URA
Does anyone know if there is a liquid copper etf? All I've seen is COPX and DBB which isn't even fully copper and they are both pretty illiquid. 
If that's the areas you want, that is fine... except for having both SPY and VOO. SOXX and PSI are very different, so that is fine. CPR holds copper futures. If that is your intent, fine, but given everything else I suggest you check out COPP or COPX which holds actual copper miners like Freeport-McMoRan. I'd avoid LIT at least till 2025. Not enough demand yet.
It has pretty low volume for a penny stock So not much liquidity to begin/out fast. Commodities can be hard to trade and are usually not held for long-term investments. If you like copper then consider the ETF COPX though at the moment it looks to be rolling over so I wouldn’t recommend jumping in it today.
I’ve made a pretty penny on a copper mining ETF, COPX
Got the memo. $FCX and $COPX are both +3.5%, $GLDM is +1.5%... I'll take it.
I've got my eye on the follow stocks - anything obvious I should stay away from? Hoping for short term 3-5 year growth. United Health -PE 32, Yield 1.4% Verizon - PE 15, Yield 6.6% Boeing PE --, Yield -- CVS PE 10, Yield 4.8% MSOS PE --, Yield -- (Marijuana ETF) COPX PE --, Yield -- (Copper ETF)
COPX (Copper/pm mining) has been flying these past few weeks. Lots of chatter about copper from trend followers about the potential upside copper has. I’ve been thinking about taking up a copper futures position in something like CPER too. I like physical assets too though, so of I was set on gold, I would probably just go for the ingot. You will lose out on some of the value holding physical gold, as most buyers will pay you spot minus some “service fee” per coin/ingot. Hold for long enough though, and that’s not necessarily an issue.
more $COPX & $SLV calls
buy $COPX calls 4/19, before its too late. youre welcome
