As investors aimed to profit from the recent rally in industrial metals markets, copper continued to decline from a record high, while aluminum dropped from a two-year peak. Despite a sharp rally earlier this year due to supply constraints and positive global economic sentiment, the rapid increase in prices has raised concerns of a disconnect with the physical market. The interest in copper has been supported by improvements in manufacturing and industrial sectors, supply squeezes, and optimism about its use in renewables and AI. Consumers may re-engage if copper prices fall toward $9,500, but the downside appears limited as investors remain interested in buying during price dips. Current pressure on Chinese smelters due to ore shortages may further support metal prices.

Contract signings for U.S. home purchases fell by the most in three years in April as high interest rates impact the housing market, resulting in the lowest level of activity since the start of the pandemic in 2020. The National Association of Realtors reported a 7.7% drop in the pending home sales index to 72.3 in April from an upwardly revised 78.3 in March. The decrease is attributed to escalating interest rates affecting home buying, but optimism for improved conditions arises from anticipated rate cuts by the Federal Reserve later in the year.

Top economist David Rosenberg warns that the stock market is poised for a correction due to historically high equity valuations.

With forward price-to-earnings ratios expanding and minimal future earnings growth, Rosenberg suggests a potential market correction despite the possibility of further growth in the overvalued market.
