Trade Freeport-McMoRan - FCX CFD

Freeport Company profile

Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (FCX) is a mining company founded in 1987 and headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona. It operates mineral properties in North America, South America and Indonesia, exploring for copper, gold, silver and other metals, along with oil and gas.

Formerly known as Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold, the company changed its name to Freeport-McMoRan  in July 2014. It holds a portfolio of large, long-lived geographically diverse assets, including one of the world’s largest copper and gold deposits in the Grasberg minerals district, Indonesia.

Following the discovery of the Grasberg copper and gold deposit in Papua, Indonesia, in 1988, the company was listed under the ticker symbol ‘FCX’ on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). It entered into a new contract with the Indonesian government and changed its name to Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold.

Since then, the company has completed several acquisitions to expand its portfolio and diversify. Some of the acquisitions are Atlantic Copper, a downstream copper smelter and refinery located in Huelva, Spain, acquired in 1993; a merger with IMC Global in 1997; and the 2007 acquisition of Phelps Dodge to become the world’s largest publicly traded copper producer. 

Freeport-McMoRan has also signed several joint ventures to strengthen its portfolio. As of 31 December 2021, Freeport-McMoRan owned approximately 135 oil and gas wells primarily located in offshore California and the Gulf of Mexico.

Capital.com is one of the best stock trading platforms I’ve used. The UX and UI on both the mobile app and web platform are outstanding, making it incredibly easy to navigate. They’ve built a vibrant community of traders and investors, and their UAE team really stands out for delivering an exceptional trading experience.

Great app! I requested some features to be added, such as analysis tools, and they delivered. Amazing job! The agents are always helpful and reply quickly. It’s not 5 stars because, at times, some less experienced agents may say it’s impossible to fulfill the request or fix the problem while another agent, like Angel, quickly escalated the issue to the necessary team/person/department and resolved it

This is an excellent platform. The stop loss and take profit work very well; however, when the changes are very fast like at the beginning of the session, the stop loss does not work. If this defect is corrected it will be the perfect platform.

Efficiency. When creating the account, it was smooth, efficient from start to finish. Verification of documents also was done the same day, unlike other platforms where you have to wait a day or two.
