Copper falls after report of White House hesitancy over tariff plan

This move is significant because tariffs can impact the cost of raw materials, which in turn affects manufacturing expenses. The White House's evaluation of these concerns is likely to influence the market's perception of copper's value, and a potential delay or rejection of the tariffs could lead to a rebound in copper prices.
