NIKL, which this page uses as its nickel proxy, is trading up at $11.460 per share (+2.18%), as of the latest quote. Tracked via the Sprott Nickel Miners ETF (NIKL), which holds nickel miners, because LME nickel futures are not listed in the US. This replaced the iPath Series B Bloomberg Nickel Subindex ETN (JJN), which tracked the metal itself but has been delisted and no longer quotes.

About Nickel
Nickel is a critical input for stainless steel and lithium-ion EV battery cathodes. The benchmark LME nickel contract trades in London and is priced in US dollars per metric ton, and is not listed in the US, so the figure shown here is the Sprott Nickel Miners ETF (NIKL) — a share price in nickel-mining equities rather than the metal price.
