(CPER) United States Copper - Ratings and Ratios
Copper Futures Derivatives
Description: CPER United States Copper October 29, 2025
The United States Copper Index Fund LP (NYSE ARCA: CPER) is an exchange-traded fund that aims to track the total return of a basket of copper futures contracts traded on the COMEX division of the Commodity Exchange, Inc. (COMEX). Its performance benchmark-the SCI (Copper Index)-captures both price appreciation and roll-yield from holding front-month contracts and rolling them into subsequent contracts as they approach expiration.
Key market drivers that materially affect CPER’s returns include: (1) global industrial demand for copper, especially from China’s manufacturing sector, where the Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) has been a leading indicator of consumption trends; (2) U.S. construction spending, which correlates with copper use in wiring and plumbing, currently rising at a year-over-year rate of roughly 3.5%; and (3) inventory levels reported in the London Metal Exchange (LME) warehouse data, where a 10% drawdown in stocks over the past six months has historically preceded price gains of 5-7%.
Investors should monitor the 12-month rolling average copper price (currently around $4,200 per metric ton) and the fund’s expense ratio (0.75% annualized) to gauge net exposure versus spot market movements.
