06:03 AM EDT, 03/26/2025 (MT Newswires) -- The Trump administration may introduce tariffs on copper imports in the coming weeks, well ahead of a deadline for a decision, Bloomberg News reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.

Last month, President Donald Trump instructed the US Department of Commerce to investigate potential tariffs, and the review is progressing faster than anticipated, according to the report.

The White House did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment.
