Copper rises on weaker dollar

Copper prices edged higher on Tuesday, as a weaker U.S. dollar made greenback-denominated metals more attractive to holders of other currencies.

Three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange CMCU3 rose 0.2% to $8,958 a tonne by 0803 GMT, while the most-traded March copper contract on the Shanghai Futures Exchange SCFcv1 gained 0.8% to 68,680 yuan ($10,070.23) a tonne.

The dollar slipped as investors braced for the U.S. consumer price index data due later in the day, amid tentative signs that inflation there is cooling.
