As gold and silver drop for all kinds of "Monkey Business" from political and governmental behind the curtain's, I've read that one needs to keep an eye on Copper.... It's a KEY indicator of what the economy is doing and going to do..... Around the Ft. Worth, Tx area, No.1 is above $3.00 lb.... and been there for the last several months.

Still, I can't get a read on what that means.... Can you?
