On the demand side: Semi-steel tyre enterprises have continued to start operations at a high level. Enterprises are actively scheduling foreign trade orders and snow tyre orders. The gap in tyre orders in the four seasons has not decreased. Due to waiting orders for shipments and signs of slowing shipments by individual companies, the overall inventory has improved slightly. In terms of the market, the domestic market continues to be in a normal state of goods delivery, with foreign trade occupying and scheduling production, and there is a large gap in domestic orders.

market outlook

Recent periodic rainfall in other production areas in China has affected the output of new rubber, and expectations for supply reduction have strengthened in the short term. China's natural rubber dark rubber stocks continue to be removed from the warehouse, supply pressure has been slightly reduced, downstream tires have been steadily scheduled, and the domestic demand market has normalized shipments. In the short term, the market sentiment has improved, and there may be a slight upward trend. In the short term, positive support has begun to strengthen, which will drive rubber prices to rise significantly. However, the increase in supply in the later period is still a normal trend. Beware of falling rubber prices.
