Copper May Drop, Survey Says

"Efforts to stimulate the economy could take time to produce a demand rebound."

Copper may decline on speculation that further efforts by the U.S. Federal Reserve to stimulate the economy could take time to produce a demand rebound, a survey showed.

Seven of 14 analysts, investors and traders surveyed by Bloomberg, or 50 percent, said the metal will fall next week. Six predicted higher prices and one expected little change.

Fed watchers expect policy makers to take further action at their next meeting Nov. 2-3.
