How it trades on rate days

How FCX has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.75 — moves strongly with bonds for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold Inc moved 0.75% on average · correlation 0.15 · higher than 66% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 0.07 less rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −1.34% on average against −0.72% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days −3.24% TLT −1.32% that day 2026-11-10

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold Inc

FCX in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Freeport-McMoRan mines copper together with gold, molybdenum and silver across operations in North America, South America and Indonesia. Its assets include the Grasberg district in Indonesia, several Arizona and New Mexico mines, Colorado's Henderson and Climax, plus Cerro Verde in Peru and El Abra in Chile. It sells the metal to industrial buyers rather than making anything itself. The company is headquartered in Phoenix.
Where it sits in the stack
Freeport-McMoRan holds a seat in our HALO Growth 100, the growth index we run outside the megacaps, in the Circular Economy & Resource Security sleeve. That sleeve groups names exposed to resource scarcity and the tightening supply of critical minerals feeding electrification and industrial build-out; Freeport is a raw-material supplier the rest of that chain depends on.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group places it with waste and recycling names such as Clean Harbors, Xylem, Veolia and Tomra, and with critical-mineral producers Albemarle, Ivanhoe Mines and MP Materials, under the reasoning that scarcity and ESG mandates are re-pricing the whole take-back and extraction loop. The market also compares it directly with Southern Copper.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
It sits in the HALO Growth 100 and carries a Closelooknet score, strongest on momentum and weakest on valuation. The diary has quoted it in Midday 10 editions during broad commodity and market-breadth moves, without treating it as a dedicated feature name.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether copper demand tied to electrification and grid build-out keeps momentum ahead of valuation, or whether the gap between the two narrows.

Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold Inc (FCX) trades on US exchanges, classified under Basic Materials. Constituent of HALO Growth 100.
