Pentagon warns against Syria intervention which could cost US '$1bn a month'
Warning comes as the US and Britain concede that Assad could remain in power for a long while, albeit controlling only a portion of his country
Rupert Cornwell
Known for his commentary on international relations and US politics, Rupert Cornwell also contributes obituaries and occasionally even a column for the sports pages. With The Independent since its launch in 1986, he was the paper's first Moscow correspondent - covering the collapse of the Soviet Union – during which time he won two British Press Awards. Previously a foreign correspondent for the Financial Times and Reuters, he has also been a diplomatic correspondent, leader writer and columnist, and has served as Washington bureau editor. In 1983 he published God's Banker, about Roberto Calvi, the Italian banker found hanging from Blackfriars Bridge.
Tuesday 23 July 2013
The Pentagon's top uniformed official has given one of the clearest signals yet of the reluctance of the Obama administration to intervene militarily in the Syrian civil war, warning that to do so would cost billions of dollars annually and possibly backfire against US interests.
In a letter to the Senate Armed Committee, General Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, set out five options, ranging from training and arming the opposition to establishing buffer zones or or a no-fly zone and direct strikes against regime targets. The pricetag would vary from $500m a year to $1bn a month, as well as thousands of troops.
His warning came as the US and allies including Britain have begun to concede that after his recent successes on the battlefield, President Bashar al-Assad could remain in power for a long while, albeit controlling only a portion of his country.
Thus far, after considerable delay and pressure from some on Capitol Hill for more robust action, Mr Obama has approved shipments of only light arms and ammunition in a CIA covert operation, using funds from the agency's existing budget. That move was endorsed last week by the House and Senate Intelligence committees. The shipments are expected to start soon, analysts here say.
Anything more, Gen. Dempsey warned in his letter, could have "unintended consequences" for Washington – not least an implosion of the regime that could open the door to extremists, or "unleash the very chemical weapons we seek to control." The direct use of force could moreover damage US combat readiness elsewhere.
Nor did the letter even mention broader non-military obstacles to intervention, including Russia's steadfast opposition at the United Nations to more forceful action, and polls here which show that after Iraq and Afghanistan, a majority of Americans are against another US war in the Middle East, and all that it might involve.
Gen Dempsey left no doubt that those misgivings are shared by the military brass. "We have learned from the past 10 years," he wrote, "that it is not enough to simply alter the balance of military power without careful consideration of what is necessary in order to preserve a functioning state." The decision to use force "is not one that any of us takes lightly. It is no less than an act of war," he added.
In two years of civil war, over 90,000 people have died, while 1.7m have been made refugees. Syria's population is around 23m.

Missy Franklin fades out as Allison Schmitt stays the course
Wednesday 01 August 2012
Missy Franklin never took up Michael Phelps' offer of advice on how to endure the brutal realities of handling an exhausting multi-medal programme. It might have been worthwhile as the 17-year-old last night found herself swum out of the medals in the 200m freestyle.
Instead it is her compatriot Allison Schmitt who is setting the standard in the US women's team. Schmitt took gold for her third medal of the Games – Franklin finished fourth and now has a gold and a bronze with three events still to swim. She will win more medals, certainly in the medley relay, but this has been a demanding start. Phelps had texted her suggesting she get in touch if she wanted any help, but Franklin was happy with the support she has been receiving from within the women's team.
For the strapping 6ft 1in Schmitt, a former training partner of Phelps in Michigan, it continues to be a rewarding meet. She took silver ahead of Rebecca Adlington in the 400m free and last night led from start to finish to set a new Olympic and US record. The silver went to Camille Muffat, the gold medallist in the 400m, for another French medal – the tricolour is becoming a familiar sight in the Aquatics Centre. Bronte Barratt of Australia won bronze, while Britain's Caitlin McClatchey finished seventh. She is one British swimmer who can certainly be more than satisfied with her performance.
James Magnussen will return to the pool tonight as narrow favourite for a first Olympic gold in the 100m freestyle. The Missile is Australia's big hope among a young men's team. The 20-year-old has talked up his chances over the last few months and duly qualified quickest ahead of the American Nathan Adrian. Yannick Agnel, the Frenchman with two golds to his name already, will also be a threat.

Servia finishes 11th for Panther DRR's likely last start of 2013
May 27, 2013, 8:00 PM EDT
Tony Kanaan was as popular a winner as you'll see at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. But few would have begrudged his longtime competitor Oriol Servia a chance to drink the milk in what was likely his and the Panther DRR's team last start of the 2013 season.
Servia did his typical "hang around the fringes of the top 10 without ever being noticed on camera" act in the No. 22 Mecum Auctions Chevrolet. Come half distance, he'd snuck into the top 10, got as high as seventh, and was doing well to position himself for another top-five result.
On lap 90, a large change in downforce allowed Servia to charge, and he moved forward up to fifth by lap 153. He fell to 13th in the final pit stop sequence and ended 11th, not the result he or the team had hoped for.
"The moment we started taking the downforce off the car it was really fast," Servia said. "Honestly, I could pass some cars, but it was not enough to go to the front. I thought we were going to have a shot at the end!"
He was happy for Kanaan, though. Servia's stop-start career that has had more unanticipated dead ends than a mouse seeking a wheel of cheese in a maze, has included three different stints with KV Racing Technology through its various guises (2006-'08).
"I'm happy for Tony (Kanaan) and KV Racing," Servia said. "I drove for KV three different times and I've been a great friend of Tony's for 10 years. He's been so close to winning it. I'm not only happy for him, but it also proves that when you try hard enough the door opens. It gives me hope to keep trying!"

Called Maha'ulepu, this 2,900-acre wilderness area is really a living museum, populated with rare plants and endangered animals. As if Maha'ulepu's geological and cultural significance were not enough, it's also a place of scenic beauty where you can snorkel in Kawailoa Bay or swim at Ha`ula Beach,a 10-minute walk over an old lava field. The lumbering Hawaiian Monk Seal, a critically endangered species, makes frequent visits to this coastal area.
Polihale, an uncommonly beautiful beach on Kauai's west side, hugs the shore below steep mounds of blazing sand dunes and is framed by the cliffs at the west edge of the Na Pali Coast. Known for its 17-mile stretch of golden sand beach and hot cloudless days.
Air traffic, in and out of Kilauea Point Wildlife Refuge, is brisk. The refuge is a regular stop on the flight path of the largest colony of seabirds in the main Hawaiian Islands. Big and easy to spot, they're a bird watcher's delight.
Waimea Canyon is a geological wonder located in plain sight along the road to Koke`e State Park. Approximately 10 miles long and 3,000-feet deep, the canyon was formed by a deep incision created by the Waimea River and arising from extreme rainfall on the island's central peak—Mt. Wai`ale`ale, which is among the wettest places on earth.
Spouting Horn is dual-lava tube breathes air making an eerie dragon sound while the other tube shoots a powerful spray of salt water. The tubes are set about 10 feet from the shoreline and on large south-swell days, the spray can exceed 30 feet.

I purchased a pair of these for our family room. Even though I am not particularly heavy, after 4 months of use for 1-2 hours per day they are worn out! The upholstery fabric itself is acceptable, but the seat and back foam are very poor quality and have collapsed. Now I have two extremely uncomfortable and sloppy-looking chairs. I am taking them to an upholstered to have new foam put in, because I cannot afford to purchase more furniture right now. What a mistake!

The thermometer works fine but the clip designed to hold it on the side of the pan doesn't perform at all as designed. The clip is too weak to firmly hold the device and it easily slips and/or falls off any of the several pans i have tried to use it on. Extremely poor frunction from something that you'd think would be easy to fix.Was this helpful?
Most candy thermometers I have used, were troublesome in that they positioned themselves either against the bottom of the pan, or against the side, thereby giving a false thermometer reading. This slanted thermometer is ideal and foolproof.I recommend this product.Was this helpful?

The Rock Craps Bigger Than Your Cheat Meals@TheRock/Twitter Composite
Over the weekend, The Rock documented his "cheat meals" on Twitter. The stomach-exploding damage:
- Round 1: 12 pancakes
- Round 2: Four "double dough" pizzas
- Final round: 21 brownies.
Yesterday, presumably after awakening from a 24-hour diabetic coma, he tweeted this:
Bible says 'an eye for an eye". Also says 'Cardio time big boy. Work off all that junk food U had yesterday'. #MySpecialBible
— Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) September 30, 2012
We're not exactly sure what he means by that "eye for an eye" bit. But there's a good chance that he's in mortal danger as "Healthy Rock," still disoriented from the dietary atrocities of Saturday's shameful food orgy, tries to exact biblical revenge upon himself for the sins of "Binge Day Rock."

A Palmerston North man is vowing to take legal action following a police complaints authority report supporting the actions of police in an armed raid on his home that resulted in him being severely bitten by a police dog.
Russell Moore, 49, calls the police response to an allegation he was brandishing a "firearm" - which he believes was actually his walking stick - "overkill".
It resulted in wounds to his face and shoulder requiring five operations and 37 stitches to his face.
The Independent Police Conduct Authority (IPCA) yesterday released its report into the incident at Moore's home on November 14, 2012.
The report, which refers to Moore as "Mr W", says at 10.35pm the day before Moore was bitten, police were called and told he was threatening his neighbours with a firearm and had "lost the plot".
Moore, a gang associate, was said to be drunk, on prescription medication and acting in response to rival gang members visiting his neighbours' house.
The call was the latest in a series to police involving threatening behaviour and weapons at Moore's house.
Attending officers ended up calling in the armed offenders squad, who were concerned Moore, holed up inside his house, was in possession of a firearm and posed a serious threat to himself and others.
They went in about 1.45am after attempts to coax him out failed.
The report says Moore was seen by officers standing at the end of the hall, and when told to show his hands and walk toward the officers, instead tried to shut himself in the toilet.
Unsure if he was holding a weapon, he was stopped and police pushed him to the floor in the hallway.
While the house was checked for weapons and other occupants, two officers unsuccessfully attempted to pull Moore's hands out from where they were tucked under his body out of concern he may have been hiding a weapon.
A police dog grabbed him by the shoulder, dragging him toward the front door in an effort to get him out of the hall, where he was released by the animal and handcuffed by police.
He was not hiding a weapon.
Moore suffered puncture wounds to his shoulder and arm as a result of the dog bite, and a deep cut to his cheek from an "unknown" source, according to the report.
He was treated by an AOS medic before being taken by ambulance to Palmerston North Hospital.
A subsequent search of the property located weapons but no firearms.
Moore was charged with possession of offensive weapons and disorderly behaviour, but the charges did not result in a conviction.
Yesterday, Moore called the response "a vicious attack by overzealous police", said he was seeking legal advice with a view to filing a law suit.
He admitted to being addicted to diazepam and taking a variety of medication and alcohol on the day of the raid, saying he had passed out several times that day. The last time he had been carried inside by another man to his bed, but had then got himself up and moved to sit in a chair in the hall, he said.
He was in "no state" to be struggling with two police offers while face down on the floor, and given the nature of his wounds, could clearly not defend himself against a dog.
Independent Police Conduct Authority chairman Judge Sir David Carruthers said the actions of police were "justified" and "reasonable", given that Moore had been involved in four callouts in the preceding 12 hours.

Both stuck closely to the ideas they've been honing for months on the campaign trail. Early Voting in the Tri States By Jason Parrott, Emily Boyer & T.J. Carson • Oct 7, 2014 Jason Parrott / Tri States Public Radio Thanks to early voting, hundreds of people in the tri states region have already cast their ballots even though the general election is still a few weeks away. Judge Keeps Libertarians on Illinois Ballot By Amanda Vinicky • Sep 18, 2014 Amanda Vinicky/Illinois Public Radio A Sangamon County judge's decision means Illinois voters in November will see three names for each office at the top of the ballot. Can A Governor Really Create Jobs? By Brian Mackey • Sep 18, 2014 An outsider to Illinois politics could be forgiven for thinking Gov. Pat Quinn and Bruce Rauner are running for the position of job creator in chief. Attacks Get Personal Between Quinn, Rauner By Amanda Vinicky • Sep 10, 2014 They no longer had to do it through campaign commercials. Gov. Pat Quinn and his Republican opponent Bruce Rauner faced one another in a joint interview before the Chicago Tribune's Editorial Board Tuesday. Libertarians File Complaints Against GOP By editor • Sep 1, 2014 The Illinois Libertarian Party has filed a criminal complaint against the state's Republican Party. The Libertarians allege the GOP hired armed private investigators to go to the homes of voters who had signed the petitions to put the Libertarian slate on the November ballot. Term Limits: The Walking, Talking Dead Constitutional Amendment By Amanda Vinicky • Aug 25, 2014 You may know by now that a question regarding term limits has been knocked off the ballot by the courts, but do you know why? Regardless of the court rulings, don't expect the issue to go away. Republican nominee for governor Bruce Rauner and his attorneys say they tried to write a proposal that could pass constitutional muster. Libertarians Survive Illinois GOP's Ballot Challenge By Hannah Meisel • Aug 25, 2014 On Nov. 4, Illinois voters will choose from the Republican and Democratic statewide candidates they've been hearing about for months. But there will also be a third choice in those races: candidates representing the Libertarian party. But getting on the ballot wasn't easy for the Libertarians. Green Party Candidates Won't Appear On Ballot By Hannah Meisel • Aug 22, 2014 Candidates from the Illinois Green Party will not appear on the November ballot. A federal judge Thursday denied the party reprieve from the state's election requirements for third parties. The Green Party had sued, claiming the barriers for third parties are too onerous ... threatening the right to free speech and equal protection. Scott Summers, the party's candidate for governor, says he's disappointed with the judge's ruling. Why The Rush? Term Limits Decision Time Deadline, Explained By Amanda Vinicky • Aug 18, 2014 Even though Illinois' general election is months away, a controversial ballot question could be answered by the end of this week. Friday is the deadline for a term limits initiative to make it on the ballot. Republican's nominee for governor, Bruce Rauner, has made instituting term limits for legislators a central plank of his campaign. That would require a constitutional amendment. Rauner funded an effort to collected a half million signatures, so that the question could go before voters this fall. Constitutional Amendment On Teacher Evaluation Approved For November Ballot By Dale Singer • Aug 8, 2014 (Updated 10:55 a.m., Tues., Aug. 5, with certification for the ballot) As Missourians prepared to vote on a variety of issues at the August primary Tuesday, the secretary of state's office announced that a constitutional amendment changing how teachers are evaluated will be on the November ballot. Absentee Voting? Here Are The Details By WNIJ • Aug 6, 2014 Applications for absentee voting begin today. According to the Illinois State Board of Elections, the first day for mailing-in absentee votes for the fall election is September 25th. Absentee voting forms must be postmarked by midnight on November 3, 2014. Find out if you qualify for absentee voting here. Well-Financed Transportation Tax Loses Big At The Polls By Jason Rosenbaum • Aug 6, 2014 Missourians decisively rejected a sales tax increase earmarked for transportation projects, making for a striking defeat for a well-financed campaign from proponents and a victory for an ideologically diverse opposition coalition. The tax – commonly known as "Amendment 7" or the "transportation tax" – would have raised Missouri's sales tax by 0.75 percent for 10 years. It would have also barred Missouri's policymakers from instituting tolls or raising the state's gas tax during that same time period. Amendments: Right To Farm, Guns And Privacy Win By Marshall Griffin • Aug 6, 2014 It was an early night for most of the amendments, but the farm interests had to stay up late. Shortly after midnight, unofficial state returns showed Amendment 1, the "right to farm" proposal, winning by 2,528 votes. That was a a margin of only about one-quarter of 1 percent, which is close enough to entitle the opposition to a recount. With 100 percent of precincts reporting in statewide, Amendment 1 passed with 498,751 votes, or 50.127 percent. The "no" votes came in at 496,223, or 49.873 percent. MO Primary : Clark/Lewis Counties By Jason Parrott • Aug 5, 2014 The head of the Clark County Board will not have a chance at a second term in office.

The list of 'new paradigm' technologies that now surrounds us appears to be at an all time high. From cloud computing and Big Data analytics to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and the Internet of Things (IoT), today we have to deal with what the industry likes to call 'paradigm shifts' at every level of IT. This is disruption; of course, we understand that – change is almost always disruptive.

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend. New versions of favorites, such as the Samsung Gear (three new products were released: the Gear 2, the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit), shared the limelight with new wearables like Pebble Time Steel (the new premium version of the company's previously released smartwatch) and the LG Watch Urbane. The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

Ricki Herbert quits Phoenix post
Outgoing coach to focus on the All WhitesFRED WOODCOCK AND DUNCAN JOHNSTONE
Will Ricki Herbert's resignation help the Phoenix?
Related Links
Relevant offers
Ricki Herbert has quit his job as the Wellington Phoenix's coach, saying he wants to focus on the All Whites.
After much speculation the club said this morning it had accepted Herbert's resignation and he had been offered an advisory role.
Herbert said he wanted to focus on his international duties with the All Whites in a busy World Cup qualification year.
He believed the time was right for a change at the club and to take on new challenges.
"The results this year have not been what anyone would have wanted and I felt that it was time for someone else to take a fresh look at things at the club," Herbert said.
"The coaching staff and players have all put in a huge effort this year but we haven't got the results we wanted.
"I've had a long and very successful tenure at the club and will always be proud of what I have achieved. But all good things must come to an end and it's time for new coaching blood and for me to move on to new and exciting challenges."
Assistant coaches Chris Greenacre and Jonathan Gould were expected to take the helm for the rest of the season.
He had a two-year option on "football related" matters - ie a director of football role - at the conclusion of his contract this season with some reports suggesting he will assume such a role.
Former New Zealand football captain Danny Hay said Herbert's departure was "inevitable" and the silver lining could be more time for him to concentrate on getting the All Whites through to the next World Cup.
Hay, a Fairfax football columnist with English Premier League experience, has been strong critic and was not surprised to hear his time in charge at the club was to come to an end.
"It's bamboozled me that he has stayed in the job so long given the mediocrity of the results. It was inevitable," Hay said.
"The writing was on the wall when the owners came out and raised questions publicly over the style of football that was being played.
"They were asking - or forcing - Ricki to change his style of coaching. The [possession] game they were seeking isn't a strength of him or his players."
Hay hoped the situation would allow Herbert to concentrate on the All Whites, who are poised to win the Oceania World Cup qualifying series, before facing a difficult home and away assignment against a Central American, North American or Caribbean country to secure a place in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
"I don't think it was humanly possible to do both jobs properly, especially now with so many of our top players in different parts of the world," Hay said.
"And a coach of professional club [like the Phoenix] is a 24-7 job, 12 months of the year."
As for the next coach of the Phoenix, Hay said the key was not to rush into a decision.
"They need to cast the net far and wide because it is an attractive job."
If the club was serious about its commitment to playing attractive football - and the signing of former A-League MVP Carlos Hernandez pointed to that - they would have to find the coach to implement that.
"They need to find a proven exponent of that style of football," Hay said.
Herbert has been in charge of the A-League club since its inaugural season in 2007/2008, but this year has seen much angst with the club's new owners wanting a new style of play.
They were last and sixth of eight teams in the first two seasons but made the play-offs for three consecutive years leading into this season, which has been undoubtedly their worst.
They are currently last of 10 teams and have lacked spark and imagination all season, with many pundits calling for Herbert to go.
Last month Phoenix co-owner Gareth Morgan said Herbert would be the coach for the rest of this season and next, though chairman Rob Morrison later said Herbert would undergo a full review at the end of the season before any decisions were made on the 2013/14 season.

Technology alters the way teachers teach
Technology has brought education a long way since the times of chalk and overhead projectors. While the old ways of teaching aren't extinct, ETSU has adapted in many ways to accommodate new technology.
Alison Barton teaches educational psychology online at ETSU. She instructs aspiring educators on the best methods of teaching.
"It's all about the process of learning theory and what we can do to capitalize on it," Barton said. "We take ideas from that and help faculty to teach better from that."
Students pay a $112.50 technology access fee each semester. According to Karen King, vice provost for e-learning, this fee goes toward installing updated technology in classrooms. King said that more than 175 classrooms on campus are equipped with multimedia equipment that includes projectors and the computers used for light and sound control.
"We are very, very careful to make sure that any of the dollars we spend go for direct student benefit," King said.
Technology has even moved class out of the classroom altogether. According to King, ETSU has been developing its online education programs since its first program, an online dental hygiene completion program, launched in 2001.
"We're working on those kinds of things all the time to increase those [online] programs," King said. "I think it's important for students in this region because many, many students work and it's good to give them that flexibility."
In addition to being the first online program at ETSU, the dental hygiene completion program was also the first online program in Tennessee. Since then, universities across the country have adopted online learning as more flexible alternative for students.
Barton said that a lot of competition comes from schools that offer complete online programs, and that increasing the online opportunities at ETSU will help the university with increasing enrollment.
"It's reaching a population that hasn't been reachable before, being able to learn in front of a computer," she said. "We have really expanded in the past few years."
ETSU presents its online programs in three different categories, and students can differentiate between the type of online classes by the section number. Asynchronous online courses are completely online and are sections 900 through 929, classes that are mostly online but still have one or more meetings on campus are sections 940 through 959, and synchronous online courses, which are classes that are streamed to a home computer, are sections 990-999.
King also said that online courses must follow specific guidelines that are decided by faculty.
"Courses are reviewed based on certain elements," she said. "We do hold them to a little bit of a higher standard as far as what elements are required."
With continuously changing technology, King said that ETSU is never far behind. She said she's proud of the opportunities that the office of e-learning provides for students.
"I think we're ahead of the curve on what we do with technology and the connectivity that we're providing for students," King said. "We're pretty good."

Fox Anchor Calls Maddow An 'Angry Young Man'
BY Michelle Garcia
November 09 2012 6:32 PM ET
An anchor for a Fox affiliate in Cincinnati, Ohio called lesbian MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow "such an angry young man" on her Facebook page last month.
Tricia Macke was taken to task by followers and asked to apologize. "You are right," she wrote. "I am sorry. I should have said 'antagonistic.'"
GLAAD President Herndon Graddick said that Macke owes an apology to Fox 19 viewers, as well as "young people in Ohio who are subjected to unfair bullying and harassment like this on a daily basis."
The exchange has been removed from her Facebook page, but a follower took a screenshot of the post, which was obtained by Equality Ohio and GLAAD.
GLAAD and Equality Ohio and GLAAD are also circulating a petition, asking the station to condemn Macke's remarks.

Barnes hit for the cycle, beating out an infield hit in the bottom of the eighth inning to follow Parejo and become the second member of the JetHawks in as many games to accomplish the feat.
"From probably when we got to the clubhouse, I figured I'd do whatever he does," Barnes said of Parejo, who on Tuesday became the first JetHawk to hit for the cycle in nearly eight years. "Stretching, running, I asked him how many sprints he does. Whatever's he's going to do today, I'm gonna do."
Like Parejo, Barnes got the home run out of the way first. He followed Albert Cartwright's one-out solo shot in the first inning with his 11th of the season. The 25-year-old right fielder struck out in the third, but plated two runs with his second triple of the year in the fifth and led off the seventh with a double.
Cartwright made sure Barnes got a crack at deja vu by delivering a two-out two-run double in the eighth.
"To be honest, I was thinking about it," Barnes said. "I felt like I could hear everybody talking about it. I just tried to clear my mind and take a deep breath."
The 6-foot-2, 210-pound California native hit a slow roller to shortstop and just beat Brent Greer's throw for his fourth career four-hit game.
"I'm one of those guys, I like to hustle no matter what," Barnes said. "It was a changeup off the end of the bat. It was all instinct taking over. I don't think I've ever run that hard in my life.
"I didn't even know what to think. You don't ever see yourself doing something like that until it happens."
Asked about teammates hitting for the cycle on back-to-back nights, he said, "That's unheard of and pretty crazy."
The cycle was merely the latest "first" Barnes has accomplished this season. He hit the first walk-off homer of his career -- professional or otherwise -- on April 14 against Lake Elsinore.
"I'd never done that in my life, not in Little League or anything," said Barnes, the Astros' sixth-round pick in the 2005 Draft. "I never hit for the cycle in my life. I have a grand slam to work on now."

Base Metals
Base metals pack on the LME traded on a negative note last week on the back of decline in manufacturing data from the US and China. Also, mixed inventories coupled with weak market sentiments exerted downside pressure on prices.
Further, strength in the DX coupled with concerns of QE tapering by the Federal Reserve acted as a negative factor. However, sharp downside in the prices was prevented due to favorable economic data from the Euro Zone.
LME Copper prices declined around 1 percent in the last week, taking cues from unfavorable manufacturing data from the US and China. Also, weak market sentiments coupled with strength in the DX exerted downside pressure on the prices.
Favorable economic data from Euro Zone and decline in LME and Shanghai copper inventories could not provide respite to fall prices. The metal touched a weekly low of $7312/tonne and closed at $7313.75/tonne in the last trading session of the week.
MCX Copper traded on a negative note and fell around 0.6 percent in the last week, touching a weekly low of Rs.464.7/kg and closing at Rs.465.55/kg on Friday.
Expectations of positive economic data from the US are likely to support base metal prices today. Also, falling copper inventories will be a positive factor for the red metal and this in turn will help sentiments towards overall base metals pack being positive today.
