Copper falls second straight session amid U.S. growth

Copper declined for the second session in a row on Monday on speculation that lower-than-expected economic growth in the U.S. and China, the world's largest buyers of the metal, will reduce demand. Copper for July delivery fell by 0.7% to $6,980 a metric ton in London and was little changed at $7,008.25 as of 10:23 a.m. in Seoul.
