Movement Alert|Southern Copper Rises 3.14% in Regular Trading, Copper Sector Rebounds Amid Peru Supply Disruption

Market Focus05-22

On May 22, Southern Copper rose 3.14% in regular trading, trading at $179.54/share, with trading volume of approximately $88.64 million, extending its recent rebound trajectory.

The copper sector saw broad-based recovery, with peer Freeport-McMoRan gaining 2.88%, Taseko Mines up 0.30%, and Ero Copper rising 0.37%. On the news front, Southern Copper had surged to nearly $195 following its May 8 announcement of record Q1 earnings and a historic breakthrough in negative-cost mining operations. The stock subsequently pulled back sharply to approximately $167, triggering technical oversold conditions. The current rebound reflects continued release of pent-up recovery demand following that correction. Additionally, ongoing supply disruptions at Peru copper mines due to a local energy crisis continue to provide underlying support for copper prices and related equities.
