US copper futures slipped along with other metals early on Wednesday as some profit-takers decided to unload their holdings after a home sales report fell one percent in March, confirming the US housing sector remains in the doldrums, analysts said.
Copper for July delivery dropped 4.35 cents to $3.8350 per lb on the Comex metals division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. Range spanned $3.8165 to $3.8850.
