Goldman has forecasted the price of copper to reach $11,000 per tonne, setting a 12-month target.Copper has surged of late, approaching $10,000 per tonne on the London Metal Exchange. Furthermore, copper has not seen these current levels in over ten years. The last time prices were this high was back in 2011.A few of copper ETFs and ETNs to analyze are:(NYSEARCA:COPX),(JJCTF), and(NYSEARCA:JJC), and(NYSEARCA:CPER).Goldman Sachs also sees gold reaching levels of $2,000 over the course of the next six months. Gold which has seen a selloff since August of 2020, has witnessed a recent rise in April. Since March 31st of this year, gold has risen nearly +5.5% from $1,678 to $1,768.During the same time as gold's recent rise, bitcoin (BTC-USD) has slid. Since March 31st, bitcoin has sold off nearly -6.00%.
