market outlook

The RMB exchange rate has depreciated in the period, the profits from customs clearance in the US dollar market have been meager, and the sentiment of import traders to replenish goods has weakened. Although the increase in overseas new rubber has not been as expected, as far as the current social inventory is concerned, there has been no obvious trend of dewarehousing, and pressure on the warehouse still exists., to a certain extent, suppressing the space for rubber to rise. China's major production areas have recently experienced disturbances in phenological conditions such as weather. The output of raw materials has been limited. Pressure on the supply side has not yet been highlighted. In the short term, raw materials still provide support for the price side. Although the construction of downstream product companies has maintained a high level at present, they still continue to focus on just needed purchases after actual purchases. No obvious demand highlights have yet appeared. The contradiction between supply and demand has not yet intensified. In the short term, the market is mainly in a narrow range of fluctuations.
