Copper recovered from a six-week low on speculation that China, the largest user, will introduce more measures to support growth, boosting demand for metals.

Copper for delivery in three months gained as much as 0.7 percent to $8,009 a metric ton on the London Metal Exchange, before trading at $7,953 at 2:04 p.m. Shanghai time. Futures fell to $7,930 yesterday, the lowest level since Sept. 7.
