They won't want a foothold in Peru if the leftie wins the Presidential race. From Jp Morgan Base Metal Forecasts Increased by JPMorgan on Fund Investment 2006-01-12 10:29 (New York)
By Simon Casey Jan. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Cooper and other base-metal price forecasts were raised by JPMorgan Chase & Co. after the third- largest U.S. bank said investment funds will continue to buy commodities. Copper prices will average $3,898 a metric ton in 2006, compared with a previous forecast of $3,448, Jon Bergtheil, JPMorgan's London-based head of global metals strategy, said in a report today. Aluminum prices will average $2,075, instead of $1,883. The forecast for zinc was increased to $1,775 from $1,475. ``Ongoing investment into commodities by broad-based global funds remains very strong,'' Bergtheil said.
