Copper prices fell in London and Shanghai on Tuesday, along with oil and grains, as the potential for Chinese monetary policy tightening continues to drag prices off recent highs. Shanghai copper fell 1 percent to 64,310 yuan, sliding after an early rally to 65,590 yuan. Shanghai zinc ended 2.4 percent weaker, while aluminium fell 140 yuan to 16,655 yuan.
