Copper edged lower with aluminum while Iran evaluates a fresh proposal from US President Donald Trump to end a conflict that’s nearing the 10-week mark. Most industrial metals had surged on Tuesday and Wednesday on growing optimism for deescalation of a war that’s pushed up energy prices and threatened the global economy. Tehran is now mulling a one-page memorandum from the US that proposes a path to reopening the Strait of Hormuz. As oil prices steadied following big swings this week, copper trimmed its rally, falling 0.2% to trade at $13,366 a ton by 12:28 p.m. Shanghai time. Aluminum was down 0.6% and zinc was little changed. The war in the Middle East has roiled metals markets by rupturing some supplies, cutting off flows of sulfuric acid needed by producers elsewhere, and risking a major hit to manufacturers worldwide. Aluminum has posted sharp gains after the region’s smelters were forced to cut production. “In the short term we probably think aluminum would react negatively to an end of the war,” Guy Wolf , global head of market analytics at Marex Spectron, said at a seminar in Hong Kong during LME Asia Week. “But probably then that would actually provide a buying opportunity because the production outages are not going to be resolved immediately.”

Michael Derrer Fuchs/iStock Editorial via Getty Images The CDC said Wednesday it is closely monitoring the situation involving U.S. travelers aboard a luxury cruise ship affected by a hantavirus outbreak. Three people - a Dutch couple and a German national - have died in the outbreak on the MV Hondius. Eight people, including a Swiss citizen, are suspected to have contracted the virus, according to the World Health Organization. "The Department of State is leading a coordinated, whole-of-government response including direct contact with passengers, diplomatic coordination, and engagement with domestic and international health authorities," the CDC said in a statement. People in at least three U.S. states were being monitored for potential hantavirus infections after the outbreak on the MV Hondius, though none had shown signs of illness, the New York Times reported earlier on Wednesday.

tum3123/iStock via Getty Images Market Review Equity markets in the developing world, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, slipped 0.2% in the first quarter. The monthslong rally across equity markets in the developing world—fueled in part by global investors seeking alternatives to US risk assets—came to an abrupt end in March due to escalating tensions in the Middle East, where the US's and Israel's joint military campaign against Iran curbed risk appetites. News that Iran had imposed a near-total blockade of the Strait of Hormuz in response to the airstrikes concerned many investors, who feared that its effective closure might have dire consequences for the global economy given that one-fifth of the world's oil and natural gas and roughly one-third of the world's fertilizer that sustains global crops pass through the narrow waterway. Global stock and oil markets were volatile throughout March, as investors searched for any signs that a de-escalation of hostilities was on the horizon. The price of Brent crude oil, the global benchmark, ended March at US$118.45 per barrel, a 63% increase since the war in Iran began on 28 February, and the largest monthly jump in percentage terms on record. Emerging Asia, which is heavily reliant on crude oil from the Middle East, was the worst-performing region in the period, falling 1.5%, due largely to worries that the oil shock will adversely impact the region's economic outlook. Nevertheless, stock markets in global technology hubs Korea and Taiwan both rose sharply, thanks to the demand upcycle for memory chips. China's stock market fell as a result of a sell-off of AI-linked stocks. India's stock market fell on concerns about the impact that surging oil prices will have on the country's economy. Indonesia's stock market tumbled on news that index provider MSCI was considering removing the country as a constituent of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index due to low liquidity and ownership concentrations, which, if carried...
