SINGAPORE, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Copper is seen to open steady on Monday, supported by a weaker dollar after Ireland sought an international bailout to tackle its debt crisis, but
concerns about China's move to combat inflation weigh.
* Three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange edged down $21 to close at $8,404 a tonnes on Friday, posting
its biggest weekly decline in three months.
* When Shanghai copper closed on Friday, LME copper stood at $8,460.
* China on Friday raised banks' reserves requirement for the second time in two weeks, stepping its battle to pull excess cash out of the economy before inflation has a chance to take off.
* The EU and IMF agreed on Sunday to help bail out Ireland with loans to tackle its banking and budget crisis in a bid to protect Europe's financial stability
* Chile's Codelco plans to offer an annual physical copper premiums for Chinese buyers of between $110 and $115 a tonne in 2011 from $85 in 2010 ahead of negotiations next week, Santiago-based traders with knowledge of the plan said Friday.
