```htmlGolden Ten Data reported on April 20 that copper prices are falling from their closing highs since early February, amid uncertainty in ceasefire negotiations between Washington and Tehran after the United States seized an Iranian vessel in the Strait of Hormuz. After four consecutive weeks of gains, the metal's price dropped by about 1.1% in early Asian trading, with zinc and lead prices also declining. Data shows that oil prices surged significantly on Monday—partially offsetting last week's sharp fall—while most metal prices dropped, as renewed concerns about the global economy impacted trading.
