'Metals Sink as China Exchange Told to Rip Out High-Speed Servers'

 


Metals fell at the end of a dramatic week, as news of a Chinese clampdown down on high-frequency trading cooled sentiment after frenzied activity in mainland futures that fueled global price gains.

Regulators have ordered bourses including the Shanghai Futures Exchange — the main metals platform — to remove servers operated by high-frequency traders from their data centers, according to people familiar with the matter. Copper, zinc and aluminum all fell in Shanghai, as well as on the London Metal Exchange, which sets global benchmark prices for the commodities.
