Sandfire (SFR) and fellow copper stocks led the miners higher this morning with the largest locally based pure copper play testing $17 in morning trade, extending its gain year-to-date up towards 80%. We touched on SFR in the morning report when ewe discussed the “let it run” thematic which has served investors well in the miners over recent months.
- Copper miners surged higher this morning led by Sandfire (SFR), Capstone Copper (CSC) and even heavyweight BHP Group (BHP) joining the Bull Party.

- We remain bullish towards SFR medium term believing global electrification is in its infancy.
