Copper soared by the most since 2009 as optimism about a relaxation in China’s Covid policies and a steep decline in the dollar set off a scorching run-up across industrial metals markets already facing tight supply.

Copper closed 7.1% higher on the London Metal Exchange, while zinc rose 5.7% and aluminum rallied 4%. Mining equities also jumped, with Anglo American Plc surging 11%. A slumping dollar boosts purchasing power for commodities consumers in countries like China, where the yuan saw its biggest rally since 2005.
