#2 Copper market context — Louisiana

Yards in Louisiana that buy #2 Copper draw from the local mix of petrochemicals, oil and gas, ports and shipping, and seafood.

Most of the state's posted-rate activity for #2 Copper clusters in and around Abbeville. Sellers usually find that posted rates respond to the same end-use demand for electrical wiring and plumbing that drives the national market, with yard-to-yard differences inside the state coming down to volume and downstream relationships.
