Fresh attacks on shipping vessels and Iran’s new supreme leader vowing to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed have pushed oil near $100 per barrel and stock markets to three-month lows, triggering the December Low Indicator on both the Dow Industrials and S&P 500 Index (^SPX), highlights Jeff Hirsch, editor-in-chief of The Stock Trader’s Almanac.
Copper tends to make a major seasonal bottom in November/December and then tends to post major seasonal peaks in April or May. One trading option that provides exposure to the copper market without having to have a futures trading account is the United States Copper Index Fund (CPER), advises Jeff Hirsch, editor-in-chief of The Stock Trader’s Almanac.
