SEC Delays Decision on Copper Trust Listing
If you planned to buy or trade units of the Sprott Physical Copper Trust, the SEC extended its decision deadline. The original 180-day deadline was December 23, 2025, and the SEC extended that period by 60 days so the Commission will decide by February 21, 2026, which delays whether those units can be listed and traded.
